I think it depends how you mean it does he have them non stop or when he has been playing its fairly normal .,for little boys to do that ..Perhaps mention it to the doctor if its excess.

Are you associating the erections with sickle cell anemia?  My son had erections from the time he was a baby and my pediatrician just said it was totally normal.  Didn't your husband have erections when he was a boy?
