Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement 's  Response
It looks to be collection of blood there. You need not to be worried as it will improve by its own . It can take few weeks to months though. I will advice you to do hot water fomentation and physiotherapy. If it is not regressing after one month then you can take a x ray to confirm the cause.
