Brief Answer:
Teething irritation suggestions

Detailed Answer:
Hi.... this seems to be a teething related irritation.

1. The best option is a hygienic chewable teether.
2. 2nd best option will be Zytee gel applied on the area of gum irritation.
3. There can be some diarrhea, not because of teething, but because to soothe the him sensation the kid tries to keep whatever is at hand and bite it.
4. You can use Calcium and Vitamin D supplements like Syrup Caldikind 5ml twice a day for 3 months.
