I agree with Gabe and Pitangadiego, just let it work it out on its own.

With regards to the pup removal question: If you do not want to have to keep cutting them every few weeks, the way I like to do it so you do as little damage as possible to the mother plant is the following. Remove the pup with a horizontal cut just at or slightly below ground level at the base of the pup. At this point you may be able to see the meristem (or growth point) for the pup. If you dig out the meristem and do not penetrate very deeply into the corm, you will not do a lot of damage to the mother plant but the pup will not come back. You can also pack a little dig onto the cut surface of the corm to help the healing process and keep out rain, etc.
