Suggest Treatment For Painful Lump Above Kneecap

I went to sit down and I felt a sharp pain above my kneecap on the outside of my leg. It felt like a muscle cramp and it was painful to straighten my leg. There is a lump the size of a lime in that spot. After 10 minutes of ice on it the pain is calming down. Anything you can suggest would be helpful. Thanks.
