Embarrassing erections during physical exam?

Is this normal? During the last two or three physical exams, I  developed an erection as the doctor examined my testicles?  I'm rather self-consious about it and dread going to the doctor for an annual exam in fear that it is not normal or happens again.   Thoughts?

It is for this expressed purpose nervousness, embarrassment, fear etc. is why I started Metro Medical Direct. It's a web-based primary care medical house calls practice in NYC.
Patient order online and the Nurse Practitioner (male) comes to your home, office or hotel. The goal is take the hassles out of going to the doctor and to put the patient at ease since the whole process occurs on their own turf.
Right now it's only in NYC, but there are expansion plans.
