Which Is The Best Prostate Cancer Treatment? Does Cancer Cause Swollen Ankles?

Hi, I was just diagnosed with Prostate Cancer and plan on choosing treatment. I had an intitial visit consultation with the Radioligist and he noticed that my ankles were swollen. Does that have any thing to do with the Cancer? Also, is it better to get the prostate removed or get radiation treatments? Thanks
