An abscess in the gluteal region can be both painful and dangerous as well . It has a tendency to easily spread down into the subcutaneous tissue . It would be good to take the antibiotics as advised by your doctor and then follow up for checkup of the abscess again . In some cases ,an incision and drainage is necessary .
