My 5.8 year old son is not eating anything from past 1 week. He has become allergic to the food. He is just suffering from cold only. What can be the reason for this as he is not touching the food which he like also.

His taste may have been altered due to cold. Continue your efforts to feed him. As soon as his cold is gone, he shall resume eating as usual
