Asked for male, 27 years old from Dehradun

My age is 27, height 5 ft 11 inch, weight 82 kg, unmarried. On 29 may ,i got 104f for 3 days. Urine report showed pus cell 18-25, rbc 10-12, bacteria 1+. I was having body ache all over. I took nitrofurantoin and levofloxacin for 15 days. On 1 july, my usg was normal and shown prostate size 21 cc. On 7 and 13 july, I got bleeding in semen. But after that there was no bleeding but I was having chillness in body and bone pain in hips and femur. On 14 aug 2020, my total psa was 2.06 ng/ml. Doctor did prostate ultrasound showing prostate volume 14. 8 cc. The prostate is normal in size, shape and shows ill defined parenchymal areas if increased echogenicity mainly limited to the anterior stromal zone and transitional zone of the prostate. The echogenic areas are seen extending and surrounding the opening of ejaculatory ducts on both side and there is preserved zonal differentiation noted in both lobes elsewhere. Possibility of chronic prostatitis needs to be ruled out. And my semen analysis showed 10-12 pus cell and also volume wqs very less around 1.5 ml.then he gave me ofloxacin 400 mg (bd, alfuzosin 10 mg (od) for 21 days. 8 days after taking that on 2 and 3 sep again I got bleeding in semen, I went to doc on 16 september after completing antibiotics course. On same day my total psa was done and it was 3.06 ng/ml (increase 1 ng/ml within one month but in 2016 ,it was 0.76 ng/ml ).i am having severe pain all over body specially hips site, femur connecting hip bone, feet arch pain on movement and rib cage pain, shoulder bone pain, joint pain and chillness all over body. My all these problem. Are increasing in daily basis. My body is becoming too painful day by day. I used to feel penis tip pain sometimes and I also have sore throat or something stuck in. Throat below layrnx (for which doc says might be due to acid reflux without checking. Can I have prostate cancer though rare at this age but my psa is increasing and having uncommon bone pain at uncommon bone sight?

No it's very very unlikely to have prostate cancer at your age. It seems to prostate infection which requires longer treatment. Don't worry.

The most common cause of urinary hesitancy in men is an enlarged prostate. Almost all older men have some trouble with dribbling, weak urine stream, and starting urination. Another common cause is infection of the prostate or urinary tract. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.
