A member asked:
Does prostate size increase in prostatitis conditions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Prostatitis is an infection/inflammation of the prostate, and in such conditions, there is swelling and so the prostate may be enlarged. Resolution of the problem with treatment will decrease the swelling.
