Yes: Seek breast surgeon opinion. Dimpling or distortion is a concerning feature. Palpable mass is a concerning feature even if mammogram not definitive. Family history and other risks are important also.

Probably not, ...: Unless you can feel the lump. Breast cancer is extremely uncommon in women your age. If you or your doctor can feel a mass then i'd consider repeating the exams. Your mammo one year ago i assume was baseline, given yor age. If you are concerned i'd follow up with your doctor.
