I've been having a burning and painful sensation between my hips for about a week now, and it seems to be because of this pimple-like thing that popped up. The pain is spreading all over that area, and it's really uncomfortable. Could you suggest any ointments or tablets that might help me get rid of it? I'm really worried and could use some advice on what to do.

That could be Furuncle or pilonidalsinus, do not try to squeeze it, visit surgeon for appropriate treatment, maintain personal hygiene,do sitz bath twice a day that would help you
