Get checked out: This is difficult to answer without being able to examine. If there is something going on, the better test for someone your age is a breast ultrasound. I recommend you get evaluated by a breast specialist. It is most likely something noncancerous but a doctor can make the ultimate determination. Good luck!

If you have: a lump, you should have it evaluated by your doctor.. Mammograms do not find all abnormalities. Ultrasound may be useful for further imaging evaluation.
