Here are safe/home remedies for teething babies
- You do want to reduce the inflammation
Inflammation accounts for most of babies teething pains as it stimulates nerve ending around the growing tooth and result in pain. White foods such as flour and some dairy products usually contain refined sugar and they lead to inflammation so best avoid. Instead fresh fruits and vegetables will do the trick. Also try to ensure your baby is getting enough rest/sleep as crankiness can lead to elevated stress levels and in turn lead to inflammation of the gums.
