Patient's question:
Last week, my health checkup report said I have a risk of prostate cancer with a tPSA level of 0.08. Recently, I've been feeling some urinary tract inflammation, but the color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate is normal. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
It's impossible to have prostate cancer at such a young age, let alone the prostate-specific antigen levels are all normal. There's no need to worry about this matter. Drink more water, and for this age group, it's appropriate to restrain sexual activity to reduce the risk of prostate inflammation. Prostate can recover, but the treatment process is generally slow, and it's prone to relapse after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms.
