Can Teething Cause Cold Sweats And Low Body Temperature In A Child?

Can teething cause cold sweats and low temp? My son is 13 months and has been super fussy today and tonight. Woke up last night crying too. I assumed he is teething again. Tried a temporal digital thermometer on his head and it keeps reading between 96.3 and 96.9 but i know they arent always accurate. However when i do it on myself its much higher so i think his temp is low. Hes also sweating but very cold and clammy. Its not hot in our house. Im very concerned

Pediatrician 's  Response
Teething dont cause cold sweats and other problems. It only cause irritation at the eruption site so the baby wants to bite anything for soothing.
