A. Hi no there no need to apply any medicine over the gum.. gently massage the gum pad area with clean finger tip or moist cold cotton cloth 3-4 times a day to increase blood circulation and hasten the eruption process of teeth

A. hi mam,if you want to use that medicine ,you should consult your pediatrician for this. at home,give Massage with clean finger on sore gums of your child. or you can also provide any good brand silicone teether for this I would suggest Babyhug brand silicone teether as it is BPA free and specially designed for babies delicate gums.
