If you have picked up a lump in your left breast, then you should visit your doctor and have him/her examine it. Although at your age the lump would be more often than not benign (not cancer) but it is best to get it evaluated by triple assessment (clinical examination, Ultrasound of the breast and FNAC).
Once you get these done, you would be sure that there is nothing to worry about.
