What Could Dark Purple Large Bruise On Back Of Leg Below Knee Without Any Pain Indicate?

Hi, I just noticed a very large bruise spread across the back of my leg below my knee. I have been driving quite a bit the past 2 days. I have not had any pain. Don't believe I hit it on anything but possible. It is very dark purple. I don't feel any lumps. Do you think this is something serious?

Dear Sir,

It seems to be a haemorrhage as you are mentioning the large area bruise so its better if you get your bleeding times checked.
