Fucidic acid cream - is it working?

I have a “pimple” appearing on my bum and was given a Fucidic Acid cream to treat for 5 days. Have only applied for 1 day but the pimple hZ become bigger and the area is now more raised/sore. Is it how it is supposed to be? I took Flucoxaxiline previously for skin infection and the progression was similar (yellow head gets bigger then bursts) but not sure a topical cream like this should work the same.

I just wish it would be gone soon 😔. I can’t sit because I will sit right on it!
