10 Rotavirus Symptoms

Symptom #4: Watery Stools
Healthy stools should be fairly solid. However, this does not mean that loose stools indicate that you are ill, as the food that we eat can sometimes affect stools anyway. If you do have watery stools consistently for a prolonged period, however, then you may well be unwell.
Watery stools are a fairly common symptom of rotavirus. It is caused because the digestive system is irritated and food is forced through the system faster than usual. This means that less water can be absorbed. It can lead to dehydration and particularly vulnerable people should be monitored closely.
