Whenever I get an erection, my penis always points upward, is this right? I am 15 and when I try to pull it down to make it 90° to my body; the body of it hurts a bit. Should I be worried and is there anything I can do to fix this?
Thanks, Alex

Welcome to A2A, Alex!
It's perfectly all right. There's a lot of variation in angle of erection between different guys. Furthermore, the angle tends to drop with age, as the ligaments get a bit stretched. You may think it should be 90° because of some porn you've seen; but that can be because the porn actors are older--or sometimes they are not fully hard.
Pointing straight up is not unusual in young guys, and most have it up at some angle (though some have it at 90°). All of these will work in sex. Pointing straight up strongly along the body may interfere with some sex positions, but with age the problem will go away.
