Naval piercing bump

I just got my belly button pierced a week ago and a little bump is starting to take root, close to the piercing. Is this normal?

Dear Rebekah,

I have seen this problem several times. It seems that sometimes the bump goes away with warm compresses and other times there was a need for medical attention. I would recommend that you call the facility where you had the piercing done and speak with them first.
