Hello,
Lump below knee level may have various reasons. It may be a fat collection.
It may be due to a collection of fluids. It may be some inflammation plus pus.
So it's better to have a proper diagnosis by a near doctor. Start hot water soaking for the relief of pain and swelling.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
