Have him sip some water to wash it down. That should probably take care of it. We found the Hyland's Teething tablets and Bioron (sp?) teething liquid vials. These didn't have the sugars in them and they seemed to have a better effect and longer lasting than using Tylenol. Also, ibuprofen will help with the swelling and last longer through the night than Tylenol. You can give the ibuprofen at bedtime and it will last for 8 or more hours.
