What to do to ease teething pain?

[shygirliee56]

Hi ladies I've literally tried everything DS 11months teething really bad with a very high fever pulling his ears rubbing his nose very restless already took to doc's to rule out other infections

I've given calpol but not helping the pain I've given him teething powder and gel what else can I do he's crying very badly

@RandomMess how many hours do I have to wait to give him it

Gave him calpol at 6pm

Ibuprofen

Straight away.

Paracetamol every 4 hours Ibuprofen every 6 hours if memory serves me right.

Anbesol liquid every 3 hours
Calpol every 4 hours
Nurofen every 6 hours

Space them out so you alternate between them. Set alarms.

Cucumber is great for teething - it's anti inflammatory and most kids like it

Thanks guys so after the 4hours have passed with the calpol I can give him the ibuprofen?

Anbesol and a decent teething toy - Matchstick Monkey is good. Frozen breast milk lolly also good.

No you could actually give them both at the same time for the first dose.

Give him ibuprofen now then in 1-2 hours he can have paracetamol again as it's 4-6 hours from when he last had that.
