Need investigation: Uncommon at your age, unfortunately no exception due age to develop malignancy , please follow your doctor's advice, may do a sonogram and possibly a core needle biopsy to establish diagnosis, & treatment based on biopsy results good luck.

Unlikely: You may have an underlying infection. Ask your doctor to send you for an ultrasound. This will show whether the lump is a cyst or solid and narrow the possibilities. Inflammatory breast cancer can do what you are describing but is uncommon particularly at your age.

Ultrasound: You need to see a surgeon and possibly have a biopsy. Can be many things but cancer is a consideration. Good luck
