I fell thru a bleacher & have a knot/ bruise just below my knee on insideofleg. it's getting better but the knot seems to remain the same. it is sore?

Bruises: As long as the bruise is going through its natural evolution you shouldn't worry. If it gets worse then see your physician. Avoid the bleachers!
