Hey, It depends on the value of PSA. If it is more than 10 ng/ml, you need biopsy. If it is less than 10 ng/ml, we give a course of antibiotics and if the PSA comes down, no need biopsy. If it does not you need to biopsy. Mostly in oldage, you need to rule out BPH and cancer prostate. Visit in private with reports and USG abdomen so that I can explain you regarding management.
