Some experts believe teething can cause a slight runny nose and a minimal cough, but others say these symptoms are more likely due to the common cold. All agree that serious coughing and congestion signal a bona fide illnessâand are not the result of teething.
Ear infections occur at the same ages that children are teething, and teething crankiness may at first mask the pain of the ear infection. But if you notice the crankiness worsening (teething pain seems to come and go), or if fever appears and grows, your child may have an ear infection requiring treatment. Ear infections or viral illnesses are responsible for flu or cold like symptoms like ear ache, cough or vomiting. Teething doesn't cause these symptoms, although your baby may be rubbing her ears either because of ear pain, jaw pain from teething or sleepiness. You can probably tell by the way she's crying that there's something else going on.
