Have Large Bump Popped Up Outside Of Right Knee That Popped Up. What Could It Be?

I have a large bump on the outside of my right knee that popped up yesterday and won t go down with ice. I have had 4 knee surgeries including two scopes and two ACL repairs along with a tibial osteotomy. This is causing concern as it is becoming tender. What should I do? What could it be?
