Worried about breast cancer

Question

Asked for Female, 17 Years

Hello, I'm only 17 and I'm so worried I've been seeing sagging in my breasts, on my right breast the veins are more visible, the shape looks distorted and I've got a lump that I feel like is getting larger day by day. What could this be and do I need to be worried. I'm probably extra worried because my mum had breast cancer so genetically.
