A. Thumb sucking in infants is a very normal phenomenon and its called mouthing reflex and nothing to be worried about it just maintain proper hygiene and with time this thing will go . In the toddlers thumb sucking habit is also seen many a times which could be phycological cause and feeling of insecurity or some stress . Just try to make the child comfortable and divehurt in some activities also spend good time with the child . In extreme case withdrawalu can be tried with some solution available which are bitter like femite lotion . It needs to be applied locally .

A. Teether You give this to the child I think that’s going to be better there could be one percent chance that a child could be having its teeth which is why your child is behaving like this so try going for the remedy that I am suggesting
