Too early for flu: If this is been going on for more than 24 hours and he is not taking good fluids, he should be seen right away. How bad is his headache? If he is vomiting because of a headache or has any problems with his vision or a rash or if he's not making sense, please take them to the emergency room right away

Flu w/o cold symptom: It is definitely possible not to have the common cold symptoms and still have a flu. Call your kid's doctor and have an exam. Fever usually indicates a body fighting an infection of some sort. Make sure he/she drinks lots of water and have it checked.
