Normally injuries like this heal up perfectly fine on their own, as long as you make sure your water is in tip top condition.

However, there is a chance that the fish might develop secondary infections, like fin rot or fungus, so keep an eye out for any signs of 'fluffiness' or ulceration around the wound; if anything like that starts showing, then you'll need a good anti bacterial medication.
