How to treat children who don't eat

Patient's question:

In the past ten days or so, she hasn't been very interested in eating. She tried "Children's Digestive Tablets," but it didn't help much. In the past two days, it seems her stomach function is quite weak—she vomits even if she eats a bit too quickly or eats something slightly cold. She hasn't eaten much, but her stomach feels quite big. Additionally, she has had a runny nose for over twenty days.

Doctor's answer:

Please check if there is a possibility of tonsillar hypertrophy. Additionally, if the child has poor appetite and does not want to eat when mealtime comes, forcing them to eat can also lead to this phenomenon, where the food is held in the mouth and they refuse to swallow.
