red marks on skin

My skin marks really easily from my clothes. I've noticed it for ages but seems to be getting worse.

Does anyone know why this might be?

It's not just a acase of my thinking myself to be a 12 when I'm really a 14 or anything like that (I'm honestly sure!), but I have angry red marks of my bra, kickers, waistbands, watck, sock, even when they feel loose. I even get deep red lines round my ankles after wearing dh's sock, even though he never has a problem and his ankles are miles thicker than mine.

Thanks for any (sympathetic) responses

I'm the same - always have been. No idea of the cause.
Isn't embarrassing when you change into a swimsuit and reveal red lines all over!
It's like the princess and the pea - we're just sensitive souls

It wouldn't explain the watch marks, but maybe you have a sensitivity to latex or lycra in the clothes?
