Is it possible for my 9-month-old baby to touch his ear because he has tooth pain?

Yes, it is possible for a 9-month-old baby to touch their ear because they are experiencing teething pain. Teething can be a painful experience for babies and they may express this discomfort in various ways. The best treatment for teething pain is acetaminophen (Tylenol, Tempra, and other brands). Additionally, nasal hygiene with a saline solution can be performed as often as needed to help alleviate any pressure your baby may be feeling. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
