Is A Bruise On The Knee After An Injury A Matter Of Concern?

A week ago I fell in the yard on my right knee. I immediately put ice on the knee. The knee has been swollen and has a knot on the knee. Bruising developed on the inside part of the knee and it seems the bruising is going somewhat down my leg. It is not painful. Is the bruising something to be concerned about?
