Teething

Tooth eruption in children may evoke a sensation that causes irritability, drooling, biting and gnawing. Some may even show cheek rubbing and ear pulling. Note these changes and just be sure that they are not indicative of other conditions that need medical attention.
Symptoms of fever, diarrhea, lack of sleep or colds are also reported by some parents. These have not been scientifically correlated to teething yet and may be likely caused by a concurrent condition.
