I have stretch marks on my right arm next to my elbow from putting on muscle I guess.

Will it go away over time or do I just have them now?

they will probably just stay, tho you can alliviate them by rubbing some oil on them daily, something like rose body oli, derma rolling is also said to help, at any case always be sure to have a good nutrition

What causes them? I think my nutrition is pretty good, I eat some junk food but I have scrambled eggs for breakfast and chicken for dinner everyday. I've lost weight over the last few months too.

they are caused by your muscles growing too quickly, like you said. Some people get them some don't it depends on the speed of growth, genetics, etc, specifically the amount of collagen in your skin. The amount of collagen in your skin is like most things in a body regulated by a bunch of factors but there are 2 you should focus on, the amount of vitamin c and the amount of protein, the protein you seem to have covered so now just make sure you also eat your veggies.
all that might reduce the chance of getting more.
but honestly if you can you shouldnt worry about them, they are just a sign that you got stronger, gj

Damn, I feel blessed then. I got them like the day after hitting a new flat bench PR. Good stuff

You just have them now. Don't hide away from the stretch marks, if you have them on muscle groups you've been lifting with it means you've gained some mass and they're signs of your hard work.
