Suggest Treatment For Bruised Calf After Falling From Bike

I went out on a bike ride on 4 October, I ended up falling on the bike an bruised my inside calf. The bruise has cleared up but I still have a small lump under the skin that is a little sore to touch and you can see the lump when the leg is raise as the area dimples. Should I see my GP?
