Suggest Remedies For Persistent Diarrhea And Fever

We just returned from 10 days in Thailand. My husband has had diarrhea for about 3 days - starting as yellow bile like diarrhea and now more greasy and dark colored. He now has a fever of 102.8. We thought it was just a bout of traveler s sicknes, but should he go to an ER or Urgent Care?
