Brief Answer:
dehydration can cause joint pain

Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for your faith in the health care Magic
I have gone through your question and I understood your problem.

If your body's water content drops by as little as 2 percent, you will feel fatigued.
If it drops by 10 percent, you will experience
significant health problems, such as arthritis
and back pain.
I would like to know since how many days you are having this vommiting and loose motions. ??
Are you having dry mouth,decreased saliva,decreased tears ,sunken eyeballs etc??

I will advice you to get admitted and get intravenous fluid therapy along with intravenous antibiotics such as metronidazole and ciprofloxacin under the observation of your doctor.

I hope my answer was helpful for you . Dont forget to close the discussion.Thank you.
