Bowel not emptying completely

Question

Asked for Female, 22 Years

I have had a feeling for a few weeks that my bowel is not emptying completely when I go to the bathroom. I have no pain, weakness or obvious bleeding. I am also 20 years old and I exercise regularly but less than usual. Should I be concerned about colon cancer or could this just be related to lifestyle?
