prostate is gland located at the base of urinary bladder
urethra passes through to it.
prostate enlarges with age - prostatomegaly
sometimes produce obstruction to flow of urine
and very large prostate can harbor some cancerous material inside
U need to visit your doctor-- urologist get some more tests to ensure
there is no obstruction to flow of urine
there is cancerous material inside- checked via blood PSA test
