Question
The child is five years old, and after starting school, it was discovered that he uses his leg to rub his penis. The parents have educated him multiple times, but the effect is not obvious, and they are worried about the impact of this behavior on the child’s physical and mental health.
Answer
This may be a bad habit of the child, and parents can try to redirect the child’s attention without overconcerning. However, if the situation persists, it is recommended to take the child to the hospital for a check-up.
