Efudix cream should be continued until erosion occurs, at which point the medicinal product should be discontinued. It is difficult to judge on the basis of such a short description and one photo. According to the Summary of Product Characteristics, the typical duration of treatment with Efudix cream is 2-4 weeks.
In this situation, I encourage you to consult your doctor again. It is the doctor who decides on the possible treatment of the patient, m.in. on the basis of the patient's medical history and previous response to treatment. Only a doctor can decide whether to change pharmacotherapy. If you are not able to take advantage of the advice, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:

The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book a drug at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it upon presentation of a prescription:
