What Causes Pain In The Legs While Suffering From Diarrhea?

My son (2 1/2 years) has suffered from diarrhea for over 2 1/2 weeks. Dr said he had the flu and wait it out. He now is expressing severe pain in his legs. He will not walk and is in so much pain he shakes. The dr took x rays and no bone issues. Dr said it was post flu hip aches but it seems worse to me - he is inconsolable. Should I take him to the ER?
