When one has intermittent bone pain in the hips, is that a symptom of prostate cancer, or must it be constant?
I got hip pain, that comes and goes. It may be gone for several days and then comes back. Is that a symptom of prostate cancer or must the hip pain be constant to be for prostate cancer?
A single symptom does not indicate anything. Men with prostate cancer can and do have pain in their hips, most do not and people who do not have cancer at all also have hip pain.

Probably not Prostate Cancer. How old are you? Have you have a PSA test? Have you had a digital rectal exam?
I would go to the doctor if I was concerned.
