Having Noticed A Lump On The Outside Of The Knee

Years ago my knee cap was knocked out of place and about 2 years ago a hard lump appeared on the outside of my knee just below my knee cap making it hard to walk but it went away and now i am working a job where i'm on my feet and knees 12 hours a day and it came back bigger than ever and its got me where i can't walk or bend my leg without feeling pain.
