Question: hi, im a teen and im having a problem, when ever i get close to my partner(hugs,hold hands) i get an erection sometimes, what oo i do?is it a problem?

Answer:

First off, there is absolutely nothing wrong with you.  If you are a teenager, what you are experiencing is puberty.  The slightest stimulation can cause an erection: riding the bus, your pant zipper, the mere prospect of sex.  Eventually, when your hormones stop fluctuating, your erections will be easier to control.  The time period is different for everyone, but it shouldn't last more than a year or so.  Wear loose fitting pants whenever possible and be aware that it will go away in time.
