I didn't have any scratch mittens at the time I used socks instead. Try buying some teethgel or teething tablets from the health food store. I am sure if you keep the pain away from teething the chaffing will get better.

Lisa had a good suggestion, he is doing this because his mouth hurts and it feels good. Try cold teething rings and oral gel to numb his gums, ma__saging them with clean hands can help too. I gave my son popcicles, it helped.
