Since this is the fitness AND health section I guess this is the best place to ask.

I was dicking around trying to creep out my sister while we were walking home in the dark so what I did was go into the woods in hopes of popping out later and freaking her out, anyway thats not what this topic is about. The tendon(?) on the inside of the knee is swollen really badly and aches like a bruise (though no bruise like coloration is present) I was trekking through the dark woods. The thing is this bruise wasn't caused by anything physical, what in South Carolina insect wise could do something like this? Its swollen very badly though the pain is almost nonexistent (see bruise like) in length the swelling goes from the inside of my calf to the bottom of my knee. About 3 inches long following the tendon. I'm not worried about my life or anything, it isn't that serious but I'm generally curious what could have caused this. And if its a "Time bomb" ie small symptoms followed by paralysis or something. Any help appreciated.
