Hello and welcome.

It sounds to me like a bruise, you could have acquired some time during the day. At times such bruises do appear unknowingly but disappear themselves, and should not be a cause for concern. But if at all such bruises appear more often then you may have to report it to a doctor.

For now, do not tease or irritate it, apply a warm compress to the region for a few days and I am sure you shall be fine in no time.

Best wishes.
