Ganglion cyst: What you describe sounds like a ganglion cyst. Those usually get better on their own but sometimes they can be a sign of a joint problem in the wrist that could need treatment. It's reasonable to give it time, but if it continues to bother you get in to see a doctor.

Any of these can also irritate adjacent structures. Tendonitis or tenosynovits, tendon inflammation can present as a soft bump.
