Symptoms of Prostate Cancer - Could Be Non Cancerous
Prostate cancer is often slow-growing and symptoms may not be evident for many years. Generally the signs only occur when the cancer is large enough to put pressure on the urethra. However, the good news is that the prostate can also become enlarged due to a non-cancerous condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
If you are concerned about any of these signs, or you know a man who is, seek guidance from a GP as soon as possible.
