What Causes Swelling In The Forearm?

After golfing, my husband had significant forearm swelling and some discomfort. 24 hours later a very large bruise appeared on the inside of his elbow which was quite blue and purple. The next day the bruising travelled to his upper arm with redness. There is no warmth or red lines. Should we go to the ER? Or wait it out?
