Your Psa levels are quite normal. They will get quite elevated in cancer. Other benign causes for elevation are prostatitis ie infection, urinary tract infection, palpation of prostate as in a digital rectal examination etc. But your levels are OK. Consult a urologist if you have urinary problems to rule out benign hyperplasia prostate which is common in old age
