A. finger, hand,things insertion in the oral cavity is very normal at this stage and usually it is due to teething pain the child is experiencing along with inflammation and pain in the gums. just maintain hygiene of the child finger as well as any type of things which goes inside the oral cavity and also try to maintain the the the hygiene of your finger when you are touching the hands of the child. to decrease the teething pain you can press the gums of the child and if the child is very irritable and crying for pain you can give paracetamol also. it is a self limiting habit and no treatment is required.

A. Teething Maybe happening which is why your child is behaving like this so you just check the gums for the clarity and if that is not the issue then probably the thing is that your child is actually used to having it because it’s a very common habit of kids to behave like this
