      I had a spitz neiva removed last year and now I have a long skinny mole growing vertically across the scar and 4 small moles around the bottom. Is this normal? I have always had moles but they really quadrupled when I was pregnant this last year. I had my fiancé count the number of moles on my body and we quit counting at 548. My grandfather died of melanoma in 2010 and my grandma had facial reconstruction surgery from it in 2009. Am I being paranoid Or is there something weird going on?

                      Yes, at times moles do grow back. It is wise to have it checked out at your earliest time possible.
