Bruising: If that is a single bruise on your body, then you may have sustained a slight knock to your knee without realizing it. If you have no other symptoms in your knee joint then this shouldn't be of much concern as it should resolve over time. If you start developing other bruises or knee symptoms then you need a review with your doctor.
