Get evaluated: It could be many things including infection, a tumor, thyroid goiter/growth...If you cannot hold anythng down, it's time to see your doctor for an evaluation and appropriate treatment. Good luck.

Hard to know: Could be an infection. Anytime you have pain and difficulty "holding something down" the risk of dehydration and worsening illness is high. You need a medical evaluation right away.
