Bruise or fracture: Did you fall into something or get hit there? One of the worrisome things is pulmonary embolus. See your dr. It is most likely a bruise or possibly if you fell or hot that area, maybe a small fracture. Since it is getting worse, we have ho look into it. See your doc to make sure it is nothing serious like a PE

Watch it: Most likely you pulled a muscle or bruised some ligament/tendon. It should go away soon. If not, see a doctor.
