You see it in movies all the time. Some guys get hit right in the privates. Yow！ If you’re a boy， you probably already know your penis are easily upset. Why？ And more important， what do you do if you’re having pain or another problem “down there”？
Unfortunately， there are lots of ways for a boy to hurt his penis. It can happen while he’s riding his bike or playing sports. It can happen if someone bumps or kicks a boy there. Some sports require boys to wear special cups to protect that part of the body， but most of the time boys don’t wear this kind of protection.
The good news is that these injuries are not usually serious， though a boy will usually feel pain for a while. Small injuries don’t usually cause long-term problems. But it’s a good idea to tell a parent if you get this kind of injury， just in case.
If it’s a small injury， the pain should slowly go away in less than an hour. Meanwhile， your mom or dad could give you some ice to apply and some pain relievers to take. You also could lie down and take it easy for a while.
Sometimes， the injury might be more serious. Make sure you tell a parent so you can see a doctor if：
the pain is really bad
the pain doesn’t go away in an hour
you get a fever
...
These are signs of a more serious injury， so seeing a doctor is a must.
Lots of boys don’t like the idea of telling anyone about a problem with their penis. The good news is that a boy doesn’t have to tell everyone—like his whole class！ He just needs to tell his mom， dad， or another adult who can get him to the doctor， if needed.
It might be a little embarrassing， but if the problem isn’t treated， it could get much worse and be really uncomfortable， so don’t be late to tell your parents！
