They are all of the same moles. Just let me know if these moles are fine or not.

We are no doctors and cannot tell you whether they are, or arent. But to me, they look fine. Skin cancer moles are often non symmetrical, and very oddly shaped. They look normal to me.

They look like normal moles, but as Addison said, we're not doctors.
So if your really worried go and see your doctor, but they look fine.

They look normal. If they change shape, color, size or suddenly become raised when they were previously flat, things like that, go see a dermatologist to be sure they're fine. Otherwise, most everyone has freckles and moles, you probably have nothing to worry about. Be sure to wear sunscreen when you go outside, that can help prevent your moles from turning bad.

What does this old mole look bad? It was removed a few years ago, but the doctor did a crappy job of removing it.

We're not doctors. You're probably fine, but if you think you have a problem, go see the doctor. The rule for checking your moles can be abbreviated to ABCD. A is for asymmetrical. Moles and freckles should be more-or-less symmetrical in shape. B is for bump. As in a previously flat freckle now sticking up like a mole. C is for color. A healthy mole should stay the same color and not change around. D is for diameter. A healthy mole shouldn't grow significantly, and shouldn't be more than a centimeter in diameter. Now, if you have any of those problems, it doesn't mean anything has to be wrong with you. It just means it'd be good to see a doctor so they can say for sure. Just check your moles every here and there for changes, and avoid excessive sun exposure, and you'll be fine. Chill.

Yeah, the main reason I was asking was because the area was sorta itchi, but I think that might have more to do with my OCD.

I think they are fine. THe "moles" that you have are normal. I do not find them disgusting or un-ordinary in any way. I would not look twice to them. So I dont think you should be concerned in any way.

Okay, apparently the removed mole is just a hypertrophic scar. The only problem is that it just randomly decided to bug the crap out of me 3 years after the mole was removed.

Well, joy. Even if I did goto the dermatoligist, my dad wouldn't even fucking pay for it.

Its good that you're thinking about these things, however, as the others have said, we arent doctors (Doctors cant even be 100% certain a lot of the time just by looking, thats why there are biopsys)
Jessi (Teeny's Sis) is right with the whole ABCD of it, all of which follow that the mole has changed in some way. If it's changed, get it checked.
Anyway, I hope they arent annoying you as much! :)
