What Causes A Painfully Swollen Lump Below The Knee?

Hi For quite some time I ve had a sore leg with tenderness to the touch on the outer side of my right knee and swelling on my leg just below the knee with a knot in it. If I sit for a while or upon rising in the morning, it takes a little bit to be able to stand on it. It hasn t gotten worse nor better. About three months ago I had a cortisone injection in the knee joint because I couldn t stand on it at all. Any idea what might be going on?
