Sort of: Hopefully it will be a benign lump but you should definitely get a diagnostic (not screening) mammogram and ultrasound at a dedicated breast imaging center.

Yes: A dominant breast mass is cancer until proved otherwise. It's your physician's call whether to perform imaging, try to aspirate it (this will make a cyst vanish), or needle-biopsy it. The good news is that a woman who checks her breast regularly (yes, it's a very good idea even in the "mammogram age") and acts appropriate when she finds a lump almost never dies of breast cancer. Good luck.

See your doc: Any new symptoms involving your breast should be brought to the attention of your friend primary care physician. While breast cancer in a 32 year is not common, it is possible.
