Hi,
The lesions on chest and extrimity you described may be mole most probably. Medically youo can say nevus.. Melanotic nevus. The nevi are benign in nature. They might remain asymptomatic. You may keep untreated. You have to keep watch for the changes in the nevi..like change in color,surface,fissuring..etc. if you feel something wrong you immediately consult dermatologist to have firm diagnosis. Then excision biopsy may be done. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
