it sounds like your stance is too wide. the way i learnt horse stance, yes it varies style to style, your centre of gravety and weight should be centred over your feet and the feet are slightly wider than shoulder distance. if you do it this way your skin shouldn't be getting pulled any direction and you should be fine. is your stance different or am i missing something?

I was going to comment on stance being too wide...

I wonder if another factor was was there such disorder evodent before the stance or routine of stance?

What is the surface that the stance is performed on?

Are the torso, knees, legs, and feet properly positioned?
