A young male patient presenting with a painful, sustained erection lasting longer than 4 hours, absent of sexual arousal, is likely to be experiencing priapism which can result from hematological conditions such as sickle cell anemia.
False
True
The correct answer is that the scenario described is indicative of priapism, a condition characterized by a prolonged erection not associated with sexual activity. It can result from various etiologies, including hematological disorders, such as sickle cell disease, and requires urgent medical intervention to prevent potential long-term complications such as erectile dysfunction. Other causes may include medication use or trauma, but it is not a normal physiological response to sexual arousal or desire.
