Baby teething with fever, vomiting, and diarrhea - what medications should be taken?

Patient's question:

For more than a month, the condition description: My child has been teething for 3 days, with fever, vomiting, and diarrhea. Are these natural symptoms?
Past treatment history and effectiveness: Not good, it keeps recurring.
What kind of help do you want: What medicine should I take?

Doctor's answer:

When the teeth are struggling to push through the gums, it's inevitable to have areas similar to "wounds," causing discomfort. If oral hygiene is not sufficient at this time, there is a high likelihood of gum inflammation and fever. Therefore, parents should help their babies clean their mouths more often, drink plenty of water, and rinse their mouths after meals. If the body temperature exceeds 38.5°C, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.
During teething, the baby's salivary glands gradually mature. As a result, most babies will constantly drool. Parents should wipe away the drool in a timely manner to prevent skin irritation in the affected areas. Baby clothes, pillows, bedding, and other items are easily contaminated with drool. They should be washed and dried frequently to avoid bacterial growth.
