Hi everyone,

I'm a 17 year old girl and I'm worried about some moles on my body, all of which I've had since I was a child (bar one triangle shaped one that hasnt grown or changed since it came on last year). One is a raised bumpy one, which itched once when I was on hols last year. Another is a dark brown/black freckle on my calf, about 3mm in diameter which hasnt grown significantly or bled or itched. I also have a dark mole resembling a skin tag only bigger on my back. All of these have been here since childhood. Lastly, I have a non symmetrical freckle on my thigh that has a slightly darker dot in it, this also has been here for some years and i havent noticed any change.

I've made an appointment for tuesday with my gp, but I'm terrified that i have melanoma or something. Furthermore, I dont havea family history with skin cancer. I hope someone can help ease my anxiety.

P.s I got routine blood work done in February because I had tonsillitis. Nothing was out of order.
