Teething is a normal phenomena in children. It is just a small phase. It can cause low grade temp, loose motions and may make the child irritable. -Can apply Coconut oil on the gums -Use a steel spoon or hard and long middle piece of carrot. Keep them in a fridge for sometime and can give the child to chew -Can use wooden teethers too. Avoid plastic teethers. However it gets better on its own. Don't require any syrup to treat that. D3 however to be continued till 1 year of age.
