Keeping in mind his age, duration of symptoms and recurrent episodes, diffuse enlargement of prostatitis, rest of neuro exam being nl and U/A results I think it is prostatitis. what else could it be?

this is prostatitis , repeatu/a after prostatic massage. age goes against the diagnosis of ca, the u/a disagrees with the diagnosis of cystitis and pyelonephritis. no costovertberal tenderness either,no features of epididdymitis. tooyoung for BPH .
