Priapism or persistant genital arousal, I tried reading up on it but bot much relates to children.
I suffered temporarily from this and it wasnt nice, it was healing nerves in the area or linked area. Nerves can be pinched or upset by a fall or by growing or extra blood flow. I hope its temporary for the boy. There are also links to psy reasons but I doubt this is the case in a 5yo. Though, if the kiddo is ASD anxiety can be a link. My ASD severe son is only 3 and extremely extremely anxious. Who knows why ๐Ÿ˜“...just part of the condition.
