Lumps and bumps in piercings happen for a few reasons but the number one cause for the lumps and bumps is misuse or over use of cleaning products. These come with various names, Bactine, Dragon Mist, Pierced ear solution and various other names but actually the bumps or lumps and not Keloids but actually Hypertrophic reactions.

This is where the tissue freaks out due to the irritantand inflames with a build up of collagen The solution to this is simple, stop using all cleaning products on your piercing and just irrigate the piercing daily with running water while moving the jewellery back and forth.

This will flush the irritant out of the piercing and allow the tissue to settle down, now this will take several days to a week or two depending on how bad the lumps or bumps are but this solution works without fail. So do that and your issues should resolve themselves in a few days.

It is most likely an enlarged lymphnode and it is best to not mess with it because it will only make it worse. The swelling of it will go down if you don't toy around with it.

No, injection and topicals tend to swell the navel area and bugger up the tissue so that getting the piercing aligned properly is a pain in the neck. Why bother the perceived pain of getting the piercing done is at a point that you want anesthetic for it, maybe navel piercing isn't for you.
