Ear scratching/eye, nose rubbing is very common at this age group.
It may be due to allergy, I infection, or may be a signs of teething.
If your baby is casually scratching or rubbing at his ear/rubbing eyes,
but seems happy and playful, with only intermittent bouts of fussiness,
then the problem may simply be teething -- a reaction to the tingling of the tooth nerves.
But if scratching most of the times and redness with ear/ear discharge then need consultation with nearest pediatrician
