Question
My 10-year-old son frequently has an erection during sleep. Is this a sign of early puberty? We haven’t had any related checks before, and the parents believe it is a normal phenomenon.
Answer
Based on the description, determining whether a child has a problem with early puberty requires a more comprehensive observation and examination. Generally speaking, this situation may be a normal phenomenon, but if parents feel uneasy, they can take their child to the hospital for further checks to ease their minds. Caring for the child and maintaining attention is important.
