Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You seem to have oozing blood into the joint. I am not sure of the nature of injury. It could be osteoarthritis inflammed as well, it can grow bluer.
When you have swollen leg it goes more with injury.
Please see the doctor urgently. If appointment is not available in next 24-48hrs see at the emergency.
