How is prostate cancer diagnosed and what are some signs or symptoms of prostate cancer? thank you

So like, recently, i was at school and this kid hit me in balls FOR NO REASON. Guys you know how this feels and from a scale as 1-10. 1 being how it feels riding a bike and 10 being your on the floor crying, i would give it a 4. Anyway, i didn’t see any problems until i started to have a weak stream and some pain when urinating. These seem like signs of prostate cancer or are they just temporary? Is it possible to get prostate cancer or some other kind of disease/injury/etc. from getting hit in the balls? If you could answer this question i would really appreciate it.
