Get it checked: Swelling and pain, especially over 3 weeks might be telling you to seek medical attention. You may have injured the bone or soft tissues, or have an arthritic process going on. A thorough examination and x-rays should point you in the right direction.

Need to be seen: Dear trina, you need to be seen by a podiatrist or orthopedic physician. You will need to be evaluated and x-rays taken to determine if the knot you have is due to stress fracture or some type of exostosis or some lesion. All are treatable after the diagnosis is made.
