Suggest Remedies For Pain And Swelling In Gums During Teething
My baby wills 2 in about 3 months , her molars are starting to grow. About two days ago I noticed her moth smelling n every day it smells more even if I brush them it doesn't make a difference. Her whole gums are purple and look swollen even where her old teeth are. I noticed today her mouth hurts to eat even if I give her a banana , she will not bite it down like she used it . The only thing she'll eat at this point is her bottle. I tried making a dentist appointment but the earlies they have is till August. What can I do in the mean time?? Or why does her moth hurt and smell so bad?? Is that normal teething ??

Hi
With your query, smell might be dye to tongue coatings take a gauze piece roll it your index finger and slowly clean her tongue in the morning and evening and coming to the erupting tooth there will be discomfort to them but only for while so unless you notice something unusual nothing to worry. If symptoms persist please consult pediatrician.hope this helps you.
