Appetite goes down when child has an infection . It is nature's way . Force feeding the child will only cause more harm . Let him eat as much as he wants . That will be sufficient during this phase . Once the infection gets resolved appetite will return . Don't worry

Wait for cough to get relieved with that appetite will come back
Till then give more liquids like ors, lemon water, coconut water and simple water
