If your young child has leg pains following cold or flu like symptoms, get to ER ASAP. TYPE 2 FLU in little ones attaches to long strand muscles. Painful cramps in calf’s etc. Child may not be able to stand or walk...IV flush to protect kidneys that are trying to flush out damaged muscle cells. Virus attaches to long muscle strands in child. Calf muscle usual target.
Very treatable if dealt with promptly.
Thanks for important info.
