Cancer is unlikely at your age. It is not feasible to provide a more meaningful opinion without examining you and you should consult a doctor. You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods. Wish you good health!
