Is it normal for a 4-year-old to have an erection?

Patient's question:

Patient gender: Female
Patient age: 24
Hello; Erections in young boys are also a normal phenomenon, so there's no need to be too anxious. If there are also symptoms like foreskin itching, it is recommended to undergo circumcision as soon as possible.

Doctor's answer:

Hello; Erections in children are also a normal phenomenon, so there's no need to be too anxious. If there are also symptoms like foreskin itching, it is recommended to undergo circumcision as soon as possible. I believe everyone knows that prostatitis can cause significant harm to patients, so it's important to seek treatment promptly. In daily life, pay attention to dietary issues and avoid foods. Maintain a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up appointments can be scheduled when necessary.
