Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
Based upon the developmental milestones that your baby has already achieved, it is likely that he may be teething, and that this irritability is one of the signs of teething. But this cannot be determined without taking a look at his gums: in case there will be a dental eruption soon, the gums are usually red and swollen. Try applying a small amount of paracetamol locally on the gums if it is indeed red and swollen, this should provide some pain relief.
