Teething and Cow milk query

Question

Asked for Female, 1 Years

Hi doctors, I have a baby 1year 3 months old, she is extra cranky these days and keeps on putting things in her mouth, everybody says it is caused by teething, any medication required or the phase will go on its own?? Second question is about cow milk, we have been giving her buffalo/formula milk as suggested by our paediatrician, can Cow milk now be added to her diet as she is 15months old now or should we continue with buffalo/formula milk??
