I've had prostatitits for 20 years, current age 36 (got it at 16).
For you, considering your age and that you're not interested in sex, I'd be inclined to give it my go ahead. On top of the inflammation, your prostate is going to also grow (it has already started to years ago, of course).
That said, before you get my endorsement:
-how long have you been suffering with this? Anything less than 3 years would be a no.
-have you explored all basic treatment options? That's includes: getting a culture done to test for bacteria (currently looking into microgendx testing for myself-- may be revolutionary in finding pathogens in prostate)
-have you done a long term stretching and relaxation program designed to combat pelvic pain syndrome, twice a day, for at least 6 weeks? You may have seen popular routines in this forum, including this routine:

-The new growing consensus of nutritionists is that a plant based, whole foods diet is the best diet for a variety of reasons, including reducing inflammation. Have you tried this for at least a month? Resource:

-have you tried twice daily internal prostate massage? I do it twice daily, without which I wouldnt be able to function. Would simply have to pee top often, but its quite manageable with doing it.
-have you gotten an MRI done of your lower back including tailbone to check for nerve pathway issues
-have you seen an osteopath to check your spine and pelvic alignment for nerve blockage issues
-have you tried regular deep tissue massage in the pelvic area by a trained practitioner who's familiar with your condition
If you have tried all of the above, or have tried at least some of the above but refuse to try the rest, then I say go for it considering your age (it's just going to get worse when adding in the inevitable BPH) and lack of desire for sex.
If you do it and end up finding you still have pain, you'll know you didnt properly explore the above treatment options because that'll mean your prostate was fine, but you had surrounding nerve/tense muscle problems that caused your prostate to be inflamed.
Edit: I'll note that light incontinence will be the lucky end of the spectrum. You're not elderly but you're getting up there my friend, and with your age you may end up with medium to full on incontinence. I'd advise getting into very good shape with immaculate nutrition prior to the surgery to maximize your healing phase post surgery. It's all about how well it heals in the following months that will determine your quality of life afterwards.
