Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy4 years agoA. it is very normal that during the teething process children will have irritation in the gums and due to that children place fingers in the oral cavity and press them to decrease the pain and it is a self limiting habit

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy4 years agoA. Hello dear parent! Can be due to teething. Maintain a good personal and oral hygiene for your baby. Gently press your child’s gums with a soft cotton cloth dipped in cold water to reduce teething discomfort. Give a branded teether for your baby. Continue breastfeeding.
