Hello
Thank you for asking the question.
Amoxycillin and clavulanic acid are antibiotics.
Common side effects are allergic reactions.
It can produce vasculitis means inflammation of blood vessel which leads to redness and feeling like lump in vagina.
Burning and itching sensation are also occur as a part of allergic reaction.
My advice is consult your doctor if you are getting this type of symptoms because while taking medicine be causious about these symptoms.
Hope this will helpful to you.
