Hello, I Had An Abscess Behind The Left Bottom Molar

Hello,
I had an abscess behind the left bottom molar about 6 months ago. It was cured with antibiotics, and it popped on its own. About two months ago it started hurting again, went to the dentist and they said I needed to get a stitch bc I had a pocket back there, and a small abscess was being created again, however the appointment was available for a month later; so at this time my dentist prescribed antibiotics again. It healed, I went for a check up about 3 weeks ago, and this dentist stuck an instrument into all four corners of my molar(to check if it was ok). After this, it started hurting again, and now there's a small white pimple looking thing behind my last molar, so I started taking antibiotics myself. I'm scared to go back to the dentist , seeing as I was alright and then she stuck idk what and apparently opened the pocket again. Now I'm not in pain or anything but there is a white "pimple" back there. What should I do?
