Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, your baby has swollen gums due to teething , dont worry , it is normal in teething phase ,
You can apply ice on gums
You can give him Rusk , Roasted bread, something hard to chew, Biscuits
Not to worry if you feel like swelling on gums is incresing then you can consult Pedodontist , and go for Examination done
Hope this will help you.
