Oragel?

What's with oragel and not using it when babies are teething? My little guy is really struggling and I can't imagine that giving him tylenol is much better.

Oragel numbs the throat and can cause choking.  Tylenol will provide pain relief without the numbing.  You can also try wetting and rolling a washcloth and then freezing it and allowing him to chew on it.

I have cut up celery and froze it, my LO really seems to like that.

Many people are not aware of this risk:

So yeah, Tylenol is your better bet if cold teethers or massage doesn't work.
