Question 1

I've noticed this strange numbness on the skin of my left kneecap in a small area about the size of a coin, and I can't remember injuring it recently.

Pre-Teen Exposure to Explicit Content and Involuntary Ejaculation

_Normal Physiological Response_

1. _Puberty and hormonal changes_: At 12 years old, your brother is undergoing significant hormonal changes, which can lead to increased sensitivity and unpredictable physiological responses.
2. _Involuntary ejaculation_: It's not uncommon for pre-teens to experience involuntary ejaculation, especially during sleep or in response to unexpected stimuli.

_Concerns and Recommendations_

1. _Talk to your brother_: Have an open and honest conversation with your brother about what happened, ensuring he understands it's a normal physiological response.
2. _Address exposure to explicit content_: Discuss the implications of exposure to explicit content at a young age and encourage responsible mobile phone use.
3. _Monitor and guide_: Keep a close eye on your brother's behavior and provide guidance on healthy relationships, boundaries, and online safety.
4. _Consult a pediatrician or counselor_: If you're concerned about your brother's response or if he's experiencing emotional distress, consider consulting a pediatrician or a counselor specializing in adolescent development.

Question 3

I'm really curious about whether it's okay to drink water before eating a banana or any fruit. Do you think there's any issue with doing that? Also, is there a recommended amount of time to wait between drinking water and eating fruit?

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms, it's possible that you might be experiencing a perianal abscess or a thrombosed external hemorrhoid, which can resemble a painful pimple or lump near the anus.

To confirm the diagnosis, I strongly recommend consulting a doctor, preferably a gastroenterologist or a proctologist.

Avoid self-diagnosis or treatment, as this can lead to further complications.

Apply a warm compress to the affected area to help alleviate pain and discomfort.

Keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection.

Refrain from straining during bowel movements or sitting for extended periods.
