When i sit for long periods of time i get a red line on my stomach just under my ribs, I think it's rather unsightly and someone recently pointed it out to me making me quite self concious. I was wondering if anyone else gets this?

    I think you might have bad posture.

    I believe it is normal. It's just from your skin sitting in a fold like position for a while. Kind of like when you lean your elbow on your knee for a while it creates a red mark.

    I do too. I think it's just from the skin around the area rolling when you lean forward.
