One-year-old waking distressed at night and very clingy in the day

Any help or advice will be appreciated!

As soon as my LO turned 1 he has woken up in the night having tantrums, arching,hitting screaming that can last a while.

This lasted 4 days then he slept 7-7 for a week.

We are now back to the tantrums in the nighr where he is throwing himself this has lasted for 2 hours. However this is happening in the day also and he is very clingy not eating much.

The past week I have been transoniting from formula to oat (he has a cows milk allergy) and his milk intake has gone up completely was 3 a day however the past few days have been 5-6!

I need advice and help how to stop all of this or if anyone else has gone through the same. He's so exhausted and has bags under his eyes and wont let me put him down for naps but will at nursery but short 2 naps of 30 minutes.

Is he poorly? Teething? Will he sleep if you hold him for naps?

He keeps getting a cold and other viruses from nursery but besides that no! He has 8 teeth at the moment I cant see any signs of teething at all. He'll only nap if I hold him my sister, mum and nursery are able to put him down with no issue. Bed time hes fine to be put down

I wonder if it’s severe separation anxiety manifesting at night time?
