What Causes Discolored Lump In Knee With Arthritis?

I have arthritis in my knee all patella in this knee. I was sitting on the couch two nights ago and I felt a tender lump over the top of my knee cap. It ended up turning greenish blue and by the next day it was purplish red. I did not hit my knee on anything. One minute everything was fine, the next minute I feel something and start to rub my knee like always and there it was.
