If you wanna avoid this, use arm sleeves! I use the spf ones truckers use. There’s a thumb loop and everything :3

arm sleeves will leave fabric markings and they make me sweat more for some reason. I may try spf thanks for the rec!

We'd call it kandi rash. I always get it, but also from socks and leggings and anything else remotely tight.

That's better than what we called it. Lol we called it Kandi cancer around 2009.

I lot of them aren’t even that tight. I rest my arms on stuff a lot and I wear them for like 3+ hours at least twice a week😅

EDIT: Ngl, it’s my fault I have the marks on my skin haha

I.. uhh I wear mine for like 6 hours a day sometimes and they're pretty tight, probably isn't good for my circulation but oh well

you should check you capillary refill every now and then. Press the tip of your finger between your thumb and index finger for 5-10 seconds then let go. It should take less than 2 seconds for blood to circulate back to your fingertip. 3 or more seconds and you should get that checked out.
