    Could be a chipped cap. My brother had chipped something in there and the piece had traveled like 3 inces below the top of his knee cap so just below his knee cap and it was ahrd bump and one day after we ran a 5k it swelled up twice as big and the doc had to go in a take it out!

    Just an idea!
