A member asked:
My 5 months old started rubbing her eyes, could it be an allergy or teething?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rubbing eyes: Could be teething, allergy, viral infection like a cold, alteration in sleep patter, so many choices. Ask your Pediatrician at your child's next well-baby visit. Note also that Standard of Care is that all children have their 1st dental check-up within 6 months of eruption of 1st tooth, but not later than 1st b'day. Recommend you see a Pedodontist, a children's dental specialist.
