Suggest Treatment For Throat Pain And Stomach Pain In A Child

My 3.5 year old scratched his throat while eating tortilla chips 2 days ago and doesn't want to eat. He complains of throat pain and stomach pain. I am worried that a piece is stuck or that the piece he swallowed caused some tearing in the throat or elsewhere. He only sips small amounts of water after we beg him and managed to get him to eat ice cream and an icy berry smoothies we made and also a bit of yogurt drink. His breath is a bit smelly probably because he hadn't eaten much and may be dehydrated. I'm very concerned. He seems to have energy and all but when the food subject comes up he gets upset. I'm concerned and would like him to eat and drink.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi dear,I understand your concern. If your baby doesn't want to eat,then don't insist,because he can vomit .I suggest
1.ORS solution should be given during all day in amount 1 litre,then uric acid will release by kidneys,bad ell will disappear, appetite will improve.
2.Give Charcoal 1 tablet/10kg for absorption toxins,don't give chips ,it containea lead in colour and will cause intoxication, cramps in intestine.
3.Potato,porridge,soup,bread can be given,diary products and fruits should be avoided
Hope it helps
