Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The visible bruise around your knee is suggestive of a hematoma formation due to a soft tissue injury or a bone fracture. You need to get an MRI scan of the area done to know the extent of injury. Treatment will then depend on the cause.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
