I had numbness in my knee during a run and noticeable bruising after. why?

Uncertain: To better answer this - which knee, which part of the knee, where was the bruising? The bruising suggests that the there is a torn something - ligament like the ACL, tissue, muscles, etc. You can ask your doctor to have you see a knee specialist.
