Hi, thanks for sharing your health concerns with HCM!

Yes, you must get them checked!

Well, If I were your treating Doctor for this case of many itchy moles on beart/cleavage area, I would come up with three possibilities, these include:

1.     infective like folliculitis/fungal infection

2.     The second possibility is of eczematous lesions or contact allergy of skin!
     
3.     The last possibility is of Paget's disease-like neoplastic conditions!

Therefore, I suggest you to go for surgical consultation and a biopsy of any of the lesions for confirmation and to relieve your concerns!

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
