Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. finger, thumb, 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 hygiene of your finger zwhen you are touching the hands of the child.
to decrease the teething pain you can press the gums of the child and zif the child is very irritable aznd crying for pain you can give paracetamol also.
it is a self limiting habit and no treatment is required.

Babies do this and it is quite normal so in such case you should definitely try to distract you baby whenever you baby is behaving in such a way. If you will continue to starting your baby for next few days then baby will you stop doing it by its own so you should not worry
