Could Sharp Pain In Mons Pubis Area Be Symptomatic Of Metastatic Prostrate Cancer?

Hello, I am 49 years old, 6 2, 234...last June I had a radical prostatectomy as a result of prostate cancer. Multiple lymph nodes were removed and pathology revealed no sign of metastasis. Since October of 2014 I ve been dieting and exercising and have lost 47 poiunds. In the last couple of weeks I ve been experiencing a burning sensation with occasional sharp pain in the right side of my mons pubis area. I ve also notice some swelling. Exercise seems to worsen the situation so I ve cut it back the last couple of days. Made an appointment with my primary care physician tomorrow. I think it may be a hernia pressing agianst a nerve but is there any chance this could be symptomatic of matastatic prostate cancer?
