Why do you sometimes get diarrhea when you have influenza?

The flu virus enters the body by attacking the cells of mucous tissue. Usually this is the tissue in the upper respiratory tract with influenza viruses. Typically the virus enters via the mouth, nose or eyes. Since the gastrointestinal system is also lined with mucous tissue, the influenza viruses can also enter cells deeper in the GI system and not just in the mouth. When this happens, the symptoms can include gastrointestinal reactions to the virus and to the cells the virus enters being killed, which gives GI symptoms like vomiting, nausea and even diarrhea along with the usual respiratory symptoms.


Can you have the flu without vomiting and diarrhea?

If you have influenza caused by the influenza viruses (affects the respiratory system), then you might have vomiting and diarrhea but they are not typical symptoms of influenza. It was a common symptom in some people who had the 2009 pandemic swine flu H1N1. But it usually is not common with most influenza viruses. It can occur due to a related problem such as dehydration, but not usually directly due to the virus in most bouts of the respiratory flu. If you are talking about the "stomach flu", which is really not the flu and is just called that by tradition, then it would involve diarrhea but may or may not have associated nausea or vomiting. All three, nausea, diarrhea, and vomiting are the most common symptoms of gastroenteritis. Stomach flu is not a real medical diagnosis, though. We now know that this problem with vomiting and diarrhea and mild flu symptoms of mild fever, fatigue, aches and pains that we have called stomach flu, is actually gastroenteritis (inflammation of the stomach and intestines) and can be caused by bacteria or viruses. The most common cause of gastroenteritis in the US is the Norovirus. This is known also as the Norwalk Flu.
