    You can get it young, but it doesn't sound like a typical breast cancer lump. My experience was a small hard lump that did not hurt nor was red. Go to the doctor to be sure.

    Honey, you can get it at any age but most likely it isn't. HOWEVER, go to the doctor and get a mammagram to make sure and relieve your mind. Do this once a year and do monthly breast exams when showering but not right before your period for you are more prone to being sore prior to your period. Most likely you are just fine…just go and then you will feel so relieved.

    Not sure what the red spots could be but alot of women experience soreness with pregnancy. Also it is very unlikely that you could get it so young but the family history makes you definetly more prone. Most women don't get it till there 40's and the older you get the more prone you are.
