Can Only Antibiotic Cream Reduce The Developing Colitis?

My doctor has prescribed an antibiotic for the infection, however in the past, I have had problems with developing colitis and I am really afraid to take it. He told me to soak twice a day & apply the antibiotic cream. Do you think that will be enough?
