Symptoms of prostate cancer commonly include:
- Urinary problems
- Inability to urinate, or difficulty starting or stopping the urine flow
- The need to urinate frequently, especially at night
- Weak or interrupted flow of urine
- Pain or burning during urination
- Difficulty having an erection
- Blood in the urine or semen
- Frequent pain in the lower back, hips, or upper thighs
In most cases, these symptoms are not due to prostate cancer. They may be caused by BPH, an infection, or another problem. However, a man with these symptoms should see a doctor so that any problem can be diagnosed and treated as early as possible. He may go to see his primary care doctor or a urologist, a doctor who specializes in diseases of the urinary system.
