A. Ear scratching/eye, nose rubbing is very common at this age group.  It may be due to allergy, I infection, or may be a signs of teething.   If your baby is casually scratching or rubbing at his ear/rubbing eyes,  but seems happy and playful, with only intermittent bouts of fussiness,  then the problem may simply be teething -- a reaction to the tingling of the tooth nerves. But if scratching most of the times and redness with ear/ear discharge then need consultation with nearest pediatrician oe
