These symptoms do not suggest cancer. They are typical for irritable bowel syndrome. See a doctor.

This change in size of your stools to thin size and difficulty getting them out can be signs of colon cancer. Recommend you get evaluation by G.I. doctor, in the next week or two for specific diagnosis and treatment.
