Woulda prostate tumor cause any pain?

Yes advanced: A prostate tumor would not initially cause any pain, but could cause pain if it metastasizes or advances locally into the surrounding tissues.

If it spreads: Prostate tumors limited to the gland usually do not cause pain. However, prostate cancer frequently spreads to bone and that is painful.
