I fell, hard, on my knee cap 3 days ago. its still very swollen, painful, limited mobility, and almost feels a bit numb when sitting or standing?

Broken?: Probably time to get and xray. If three days have gone by and you are having difficulty moving it and selling, this is likely more than a bruise. Possible it could be a traumatic bursitis.
