Hello! It is not clear from your question whether the doctor suspects a problem in the kidney or the prostate gland. PSA is done to evaluate prostate status. Your grandpa's PSA is 4.64 which is minimally elevated probably due to mild inflammation in the prostate. I would advise you to get an ultrasound examination of the abdomen and then meet a urologist. All the best!
