Why do i keep getting erections all the time?

For the last couple of months I've been waking up mostly or around walking or just siting watching TV and all the sudden I get a erection out of nowhere and it's really embarrassing. Sometimes even at school! But I don't know what to do. I'm so confused...

and I need help and there's no way in hell I'm going to the doctor's. That's the worst I can do with this problem.

a doctor hears from people who CANT get one and who have diseases your healthy whats wrong wtih being the way you are.. If you dont jack the pack then that may be why.. what you could do.. is in the morning when u wake up, jack it and when u get home jack it.. . the more you do it the more un excited it gets.. i promise.

its not bout the size of my penis its just kinda weird goin to the doctors and they say whats the problem and i tell them and then probley have to show them what i mean thats just to much for me.

hey dude that's if it dosen't happen worry. it happens to every guy i know. and don't worry it's a man thing all girls know about that. i have gotten use to it. it's like a reminder from your body every thing is all system are a go. it healthy.

ok well least i know it just isnt happening to me but it still sucks i got it outa no where can be annoying.

yeah it's a reminder of manhood.it isn't ez.

yup it isn't ez but is can make me good at somethin when its time agine haha.

just kiding.

no your are so right thats why it's good to wait and learn about yourself 1st.

well i guess im just gettin ready then i have nothin to worry about then.

ur problem can be embarrassing but i had it worse. try having ur zipper open and u get a boner. my teacher screamed. im stii made fun of. but dont worry it happens to all guys

thats y u gotta wear boxers man lol

For most 16 year old men it takes very little to get an erection. Just a random thought about something sexy can be enough. I don't think you have anything to worry about unless it never goes back down. An erection that lasts over 4 hours can actually damage the penis so if this happens go to the ER stat!

You need get over your embarassment talking to doctors. It is important to be able to tell your doctor anything. Believe you me that doctors have seen or heard almost everything. Anything you tell your doctor is held in the strictest confidence. Believe me, as you get older you will get more embarassing health problems. The time to get over your embarassment is now.

well no dont need to go to the docs it dont even last for 1 hour unless i make it last with a girl.

then that tells everything right there. it is just hormones and it is all natural

i knew that a cuple days ago when tapple answered my question.

ummm....cause ur a guy......and guys do that....lol....im sure its normal.....it happends to most guyz i know!!!

dude...it would be very odd if u were a guy who didnt get them....just dont sleep in the living room...my bro has some fun in his sleepXP

That's not a problem, it's a blessing. You are full of hormones and that's likewise good.
When you get to be 40 y/o you'll wish it was still happening. I'm over 40 but I take injections of the hormone testosterone and mine is doing the same thing as yours and I love it. One word of advice, when you are slow dancing with a girl press it against her. She'll be flattered that she made you hard. It has always worked for me!

I can agree with the majority vote here and inform you that it's typical, and really nnothing to worry about. If you think it become problimatic, then yes, go see a doctor, other wise, it's just going to happen, and you kinda have to think it away. You're young, and hormones are all kinds of erratic. Not ony that, but even the slightest raise in blood preassure can make it up and at em'. Just chill. It's healthy.
