are all these things related to teething?

9mo ds has got a runny nose, acidic poo, acne on both cheeks.

Drooling like nothing else and sticking fingers in mouth - these I know are teething-related - so are the other things linked too, do you think? The acne is really red and bumpy poor mite, usually his skin is so smooth and olive. And of course he is screaming blue murder every time I try to wipe his nose ... ugh

My DD had spotty cheeks after having such lovely skin...so am tending to agree that these are all linked to blasted teeth. My DD was poorly with all her teeth, but she did cut 4 at a time. Cotton wool pads for the nose, aquaious cream for the spots and lots and lots of cuddles.

Sounds like teeth, if his temperature is not way up. Both my DS had this.

Sounds like teething to me - ds2 got really red raw cheeks, I think it's from all the drool.

I expect the spotty cheeks are from the snot. It does terrible things to skin. Try a barrier cream to protect the skin from crusty snot.
