Shabnam SheikhMom of 2 children3 years agoA. hi..There is a good connection between teething and rubbing ears in an infant. The trinity of ear, nose and throat are interconnected to each other. Which is why, any irritation in one part ends up causing sensations in the other, and even affecting it. When teething occurs, it begins to irritate the gums and the entire area of the mouth. This can result in a mild pain in the ears, which your baby might attempt to relieve by scratching or pulling his ears. These are also accompanied by excessive drooling, the need to chew on various items or even a fever at a temperature of 101 degrees or so
