General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. I understand your concerns.
Yes this is fine to give her emeser and this is probably just a reaction of augentin antibiotic and it should not cause serious consequances. She should also have probiotics and easier diet during antibiotic course. it should heal in 7 days and if not,then stitches should be removed and wound should be cleaned properly.But in most cases antibiotics are sufficient.
I hope I have answered you query
Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
