16. Diarrhea
Another symptom for the flu is diarrhea, and more so in children. Diarrhea is loose, watery stools that happen more than three times within a day, and can even cause dehydration as a result of the too much fluid loss. Because the flu is caused by the influenza virus, this virus has the ability to affect the entire body. Again, since children have a tendency to put dirty hands and fingers in their mouths, as well as rub the other mucous membranes, they are more vulnerable to getting worse side effects from the illness, given their weaker immune systems as well.
