Prostatitis is an inflammation of your prostate, that can be cause by numerous causes, but likely infectious. Consequently your prostate enzymes will be reved up, and markers such as PSA (used in screening for prostate cancer) will go up. This is not to suggest that you have cancer. See a urologist. A course of anti-inflammatory drugs and perhaps antibiotics will be prescribed and will likely take effect within 7-14dys. Actual time to remission depends, but the important thing is to try to pin point the cause, and eliminating it. You can discuss that with your urologist.
