Tiny mole scabbed off

Hi everyone

I'm 17 and I went to get my mole(s) checked out after months of worrying by the GP.

One mole on my side is around 0.5/6mm and I've had it since I was a child and it's got a black dot in the middle where I think there's hair growing out? and around it the pigment is kind of white/pink but you can only see it if you look very closely. The rest of the mole is black/brown.

The GP was quite dismissive and asked me why I should be worried when I'm only 17 and said it looked fine.

I also found 2 new moles on my arm (which could've been there for a while but never realised) but recently one of them became a bit raised, scabbed and then fell off when I was changing clothes. The other mole was normal but is starting to scab too- this has happened within 2-3 weeks. They're both around 1mm wide. 

I did ask the GP if this was normal and they said yes.

I don't want to keep freaking myself out but I can't help but worry so does anyone have any advice? 

Can moles also be naturally non-symmetrical or can they be a big wiggly?

Thank you !
