My child is teething. What should I do?


A dose of Tylenol OR ibuprofen may be given for teething discomfort. Bear in mind that teething does NOT cause fever > 100, ear infections, moderate-to-severe diarrhea, or moderate-to-severe nasal congestion or runny nose. If any of these things are present, there is probably something besides teething going on.
