Does Teething Cause Diarrhea? Does Teething Cause Diaper Rash?
Teething definitely can cause diarrhea, diaper rash, congestion and increased reflux. The body’s process of teething creates histamines which in turn increase stomach acid production. That acid mixes with the saliva which runs down your baby’s chin, causing a teething rash. As the excess acid works it way out the other end it causes diarrhea and spurs diaper rash.
