Hello. What is the exact urinary problem your father is currently having?
Your total psa is high but free/total psa is normal , so you don’t have to worry about malignancy as of now.
He can take tab urimax d 1 tab hs if he is having poor urinary flow. Also get the following test done or share reports if already done
Next Steps
