Hi..
Thanks for the query..

Your son is teething and loose motions during teething commonly occurs when the baby continue to put things in mouth that are contaminated in an urge to gratify the itchy sensation of gums that is common during teething..

Zytee RB gel can be applied but in very small amounts and not very frequently and only after a proper prescription by your Dentist..

Also do cool compresses over the gums to reduce inflammation..

You should give properly sterilised and chilled teething ring to your baby to bite on..
Toasted bread can also be given..
Hard foods like carrots can be given to bite on..

Hope this helps..

Regards..
