If your child is upset due to teething, do you find that any pain relief / teething products help at all?

We've tried:
Bonjela
Pamol
FenPead
Kids Calm
Teethmed spray
Teething powder
+ a combination of the above

None of them make ay difference...nothing...not a bit...Elle remains exactly the same [miserable].

Anyone else find this with teething? I have a third leg this week and am wishing one of the above would help.

I find Pamol normally works Bonjela doesn't really do anything for us and haven't tried anything else.

Sorry don't have any ideas for you would she chew on a teething ring thats been in the fridge I found that helps James a bit not really a pain killer though.

I LOVE the teethmed spray. I use it every 15 mins for about an hour if really bad then 2 sprays every few hours through the day, seems to work really well for us.

I never use pamol for teeth.

We don't usually use painkillers for teething either as she's never had much problem with it. This week she has bee so upset, crying and rubbing her lip all day (eh Emma...she saw how upset she's been) so we've bee trying everything.

Will try usually the spray every 15mins

I swear by the teethmed spray, It works a treat for Alize.

I hope it helps using at 15min intervals

FenPaed is the same as kiddie nurofen / ibuprofen. We generally don't use it for teething, just for fevers. Normally it's just the same combo of Pamol / Teethmed as Paws has mentioned.

Ah well, my wee girl likes to be the exception to the rule and it would appear that nothing works for her teething pain. Maybe she just doesn't like the sensation (as opposed to the pain). Will just have to keep carrying her around until the tooth is through.

Homeopathic remedy - Trameel gel. Is kind of like bongela, ie its a get, but it is meant to 'make them feel better about teething' rather than taking away any pain.

I know it sounds odd - but when Laura is grizzling cause of her teeth - it works! Anyway - good luck

BTW - the teething powder is actually meant to help bring the teeth out - well so I have heard

We went through a really hard time with teething.. she wouldn't sleep for weeks at a time (would wake several times a night) for each tooth.. my only advice is to ride it out unfortunately
