Bad Purple Bruise On The Upper Side Of Arms Of A Child

Yesterday I noticed a really bad purple bruise on the upper inside of my 5 year olds arm. It also has a hard white lump in the middle of it. She said it doesnt hurt when touched. It doesn t look like it is getting any better. We do not remember her getting hurt and neither does she. What could this possibly be?
