Yes your urologist is absolutely right. No surgery should be done at this age for high bladder neck .but you can try tab Flotral 10 mg daily once at bed time for one month. Hope your urine culture report is sterile. But I think it's mostly prostatitis. Pliz do a semen culture and sensitivity test. Mostly you need long term antibiotics therapy. But don't start any antibiotics before semen sample collection.
