Teething Rash


One of the most painful times experienced by babies is when they are already starting to grow their 
teeth. Even a single sprout of a tooth can bring unbearable pain for babies. What's more, this is the 
time when they drool a lot, bite, and experience diarrhea bouts - all because of teething. If your baby 
experiences any of these symptoms, follow the tips below to keep your baby comfortable and fuss-free.



Drooling. If your child suddenly starts drooling, one of the reasons for this is that he or she is already 
starting to teeth. And because of this, the more your baby is prone to drooling rashes.

Although drooling is normal every time your baby teeths, this can be uncomfortable for your baby as it 
develops into rashes around the mouth area. At times, it would show as red, blotchy patches of skin, 
and at other times, it manifests as dry, scaly skin. This happens when the drooling rash is at its worst 
stage.

Getting a drool rash is normal and should not cause any other physical manifestation that can hurt your 
baby's sensitive skin. No treatments are necessary, but if you want you don't want any discomfort for 
the baby, there is nothing much to do except gently wiping the drool with a clean, soft cloth when your 
baby produces excess saliva. In worst cases, the only cream that you can apply to the rash is 
petroleum jelly.

Biting. When a tooth is about to come out, the area where it will sprout out becomes swollen and itchy. 
Thus, your baby always feels the need to rub the swollen gums against something - which makes it 
look like the baby is "biting".

But the real reason for such an action is to relieve him or her of that itchy feeling. It can also be painful, 
thus, your baby acts irritably or at times, inconsolable.

To relieve your baby of the pain, you may opt to give him or her cold water or Popsicle to help numb 
your baby's gums. You may also give your baby a "teether" or any soft, rubbery material that he or she 
can chew on. Just ensure that the teether won't split if the baby chews on it too hard.

Another teething treat for babies is the teether biscuits. Not only do these biscuits relieve pain, they are 
delicious as well. Just learn to regulate the amount of biscuits you give your baby, otherwise, it could 
lead to another teething problem, that is, tooth decay.

Diarrhea. Teething is usually accompanied by diarrhea bouts that is why you need to ensure that your 
baby is well-hydrated always. Feed him or her mashed bananas or apples that are sure ways to make 
cure diarrhea.

Teething is indeed a painful experience for your baby and ensuring he or she is relaxed and happy will 
at least help lessen the discomfort that teething brings.
