A. Mam, my problem is that only 4 teeth have popped up till 16th month of my child. These 4 teeth have come out in her 13-14th month itself and since then once again no teeth is coming. As a parent, I want to know if this delay is normal . If yes, usually by what age all teeth will come popping up. Hope I am able to explain my concern.

A. it is due to teething. there is itching, pain, drooling of saliva, swelling in the gums, oral finger insertion, irritability and crying during the teething process. it will come intermittently for few days to few weeks and then will go away. usually teething pain doesn't come after 2 years of age with the help of your fingers you can press the gums of the child to decrease the pain as well as you can give a pacifier but it should be clean. s you can give a cold cotton cloth to bite and press between the gumss the child is crying due to pain then you can give paracetamol which will also help in decreasing the pain long-term medicine are usually not advisable.
