A. Yes there can be increase in baby's body temperature but it'll ideally never cross 38.4 degree celcius or 99 degree Fahrenheit. If the temperature is higher than this, there may be another reason for fever. Teething doesn't cause fever but a raise in body temperature upto upper limit of normal.

A. thank you both the doctors. Yes mam teething is a stage she has already 4 teeths ....can teething cause temprature rise?

A. Looking at the age of your baby I can pretty well ascertain that it is teething phase going on for her. Look for other signs like drooling saliva more than usual or taking finger into mouth at a particular spot, any changes in motion frequency of consistency, change in appetite,or so. It should be because of teething as the same nerve supplies the jaws and ears, so any irritation in the gums can irritate the ears.

A. Ear should be only cleaned superficially very gently by an ear bud when the baby is sleeping. Do not try to clean deep inside by yourself as it can cause injury so consult your doctor for that . if the wax is impacted you can kkuse waxiklin ear drops one drop twice a day for 7 days in ear it will help .
