Are these stretch marks?
Hi! this is definitely NOT stretch marks. If your legs were exposed to heat like heating pads, heated laptop, electric blankets, this is likely to be a condition called erythema ab igne. Otherwise, looks like livedo reticularis which is secondary to vascular problems like vasculitis/vasculopathy, autoimmune, etc. You should definitely visit a local dermatologist nearby! READ MORE
What are these?
Can't tell if they are blisters or not based on photo. You should definitely get it checked out by a local dermatologist. Maybe molluscum (see if some are umbilicated) that is spreading by contact from shaving or something else. READ MORE
Skin issues?
Hi! This sounds like ingrown hair problems + bacterial superinfection. You should go see your local dermatologist for treatment of infection and recommendations on prevention. Try stopping shaving permanently or temporarily & just trimming beard, not too close to skin. You can wash the beard area with benzoyl peroxide wash (acne wash). There are chemical depilatories available over-the-counter to remove hair, but they often don't work well and can cause contact dermatitis/rash so need to be careful. READ MORE
