Early signs of Prostrate Cancer Symptoms you need to know

In most cases, prostate cancer symptoms are not apparent in the early stages of the disease. 
The symptoms of prostate cancer may be different for each man and any one of these symptoms may be caused by other conditions. As a result, routine screenings in the form of digital rectal exams (DRE) and prostate-specific androgen (PSA) tests are important.
Men should make an informed decision with their doctor about whether to be tested for prostate cancer, beginning at age 50. Men with one or more risk factors for prostate cancer should consult with their physician about whether to start routine screening earlier.
Prostate cancer symptoms
Urinary symptoms of prostate cancer
Because of the proximity of the prostate gland in relation to the bladder and urethra, prostate cancer may be accompanied by a variety of urinary symptoms. Depending on the size and location, a tumor may press on and constrict the urethra, inhibiting the flow of urine. Some prostate cancer signs related to urination include:
§  Burning or pain during urination
§  Difficulty urinating, or trouble starting and stopping while urinating
§  More frequent urges to urinate at night
§  Loss of bladder control
§  Decreased flow or velocity of urine stream
§  Blood in urine (hematuria)
Other prostate cancer signs & symptoms
Prostate cancer may spread (metastasize) to nearby tissues or bones. If cancer spreads to the spine, it may press on the spinal nerves. Other prostate cancer symptoms include:
§  Blood in semen
§  Difficulty getting an erection (erectile dysfunction)
§  Painful ejaculation
§  Swelling in legs or pelvic area
§  Numbness or pain in the hips, legs or feet
§  Bone pain that doesn't go away, or leads to fractures
