What's wrong with my baby?!

About 2 weeks ago she started scratching at her neck. Her brother has eczema so I assumed the same. But she is now bothering the sides of her face, and she stiffens and cries. She has long periods of being happy. Slightly raised temp but no fever. Is getting upset and sleep times and bothering those areas more then.

Teething?!

How old is she

Sore throat or earache, I expect.
Neck and face Is as close as she can get to where the pain is.

Hm yes I was thinking similar.

She is 8 months

I’d take her to the doctor in the morning and just give her Calpol until then. Some dentinox (check the age limit) on her gums may give a little relief too.
My mum used to put a few drops of warm olive oil in my ears as a baby (not cooking olive oil).

Unfortunately we are on holiday but neither her nor her brother are quite right. I might phone the surgery tomorrow and see if they will see her. She has really attacked her throat

No hayfever is it? Just a thought. A local pharmacy should be able to see you, if your abroad or can be quite difficult though! I’d just get some calpol / equivalent if you can. Hope they feel better soon.

Thank you. Not abroad. Will see if dr can see me tomorrow just to put my mind at rest
