Why There Is Bruise On My Knee Cap?

hi, I have a red dotted line about an inch long, almost like a bruise at the top half of my knee cap. it is also painful to the touch in that spot. I am able to bend it but there is pain. I dont remember any impact. I woke up with it. feels like someone hit it with a baseball bat. there is swelling but no apparent disfigurement accept the redness. any ideas?
