Symptoms of prostate cancer metastasis?
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Prostate cancer: The most common metastatic site would be bones-although it also can go to other sites- lymph glands, lung, liver etc.. Symptoms will depend on the location of metastases. Bone pain, fractures would be the symptoms of bony mets. If spread to the adjacent area such as bladder area- blood in urine, lower abdomen pain, prob wi/ urination, obstruction can happen. Weight loss, weakness are common too.

Pain: Pain would be the most common symptom of metastasis, as bone involvement is common in advanced prostate cancer.
