Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The vomiting and diarrhea is because of the antibiotics and analgesics prescribed following the wisdom tooth removal. These are the adverse effects of the antibiotics and analgesics.
Complete the course of antibiotics and stop it. For the loose motions, you can take capsule loperamide. For vomiting you can take omeprazole with domperidone.
Consume lot of liquid like, juices, tender coconut, glucose...
If the vomiting and diarrhea does not stop in two days, consult a general physician.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
