Doctor, I have scar marks (type of which women generally have on their abdomen after pregnancy) over my shoulders extending to my arms and upper part of chest. Many people say it is due to excess fat deposited. Please tell me some remedy.

These are stretch marks. It happens when you gain or lose weight rapidly. Do not worry they are harmless.

Stretch marks on abdomen after pregnancy are best corrected by a abdominoplasty (Tummy tuck). But obviously the result depends on exact examination findings.
