How To Treat A Growing Bump Close To Helix Cartilage After Piercing?

I recently got my helix cartilage pierced. While not infected, a small bump developed around the hole. The piercing closed, but the bump is still there. Is there something I can do to get rid of it? Will I need a doctor to look at it or remove it? Will it go away naturally?
