My mum had a cyst in her breast when she was young and had an operation, does it mean i will have it too? i'm not feeling any pain i'm just curious.

Not necessarily: Fibrocystic breasts are very common. There does seem to be some mild genetic linkage but anyone can develop cysts in the breast. Try to avoid caffeine aas this is known to make it worse.
