As the reports mentioned it suggests acute prostatitis
Take proper treatment with long duration antibiotics
In the acute phase of prostatitis psa does not signify anything clinically relevant so not routinely recommended.
Psa will take 6 months to settle down ( do not be bothered with psa value) no need to repeat
Next Steps
consult Urologist -specialist for all such conditions
