What Might Be The Painful Lump Below The Knee?

I have a small lump, not noticeable just below my right knee. I noticed the other day rubbing my leg. It hurts to push on it and seems to be about the size of small grape or raisin. It doesn t hurt till I push on it. What might it be and should I be concerned?

Hello there
Actually it is a very short history,and that to without examination ,
What i can suggest that it may be hematoma(collection of blood) if there is a history trauma or abcess. But for diagnosis you need to see a Orthopadecian followed by preliminary examination including X ray,etc.

wish you health.
