prostate pain?

My son told me that even if he just as little as off a curb he has pain in the prostate area.  He hasn't gone to the doctor yet. He said this has been going on for sometime.  He played football and his position was defensive and offensive guard. I was wondering if this could have been a problem?

First off, I'd like to congratulate you on the birth of your son.  This may seem a little pushy, but may I suggest that you name him Bobby?  Also, it's no wonder that he has prostate problems as it's a well-known fact that when babies play football, they are quick to succumb to prostate problems.  I find it amazing that you can communicate with your infant so well.  Anyway, I'd suggest feeding the child roasted chili peppers while simultaneously slapping his anus.  This may sound a bit unorthodox, but in my tribe it is a very common practice.  My husband, Flies with Pythons, is the village shaman, and he often performs such rituals upon the tribe's infants.  He always says that this practice works best when in the vicinity of a volcano, preferably a large one.  Well, I think it's time for me to get back to my pineapple farm.

I don't know what your son means by "prostate pain".   If the prostate is enlarged he may have some pain or discomfort, but he would also have problems with urination.  He would either have difficulty urinating, or problems with leakage.  It sounds like he is a young man, under the age of 25.  He is too young to be having pain and this may indicate a serious medical problem.  He should see a doctor and get checked to be sure it isn't serious.  Men usually hate going to the doctor, especially if it may mean the "finger test".  You may need to take him by the earlobe and drag him, but make sure he goes.  good luck
