Why does my son's penis get erect at night when he is just 4 years old?

Patient's question:

Patient gender: Female
Patient age: 24
Hello; Erections in young boys are also a normal phenomenon, so there is no need to be too anxious. If there are also symptoms such as 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 is no need to be too anxious. If there are also symptoms such as 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 is important to seek treatment as soon as possible. In daily life, attention should be paid to dietary issues, avoiding irritating foods, and maintaining a balanced diet. Additionally, regular follow-up visits may be necessary when needed.
