Suggest Treatment For Red Bruise On Elbow

My son came home with a perfect circular red bruise (3 ) inside his left elbow. Said he did not get hit, nothing bit him. It s odd and has not gone away. It feels warmer than the same area on his other elbow. Today, day two, he says he can feel a difference sometimes when he bends his arm. What is this?
