If you can walk normally, without much pain or crackling sound from around the knee, you should not suspect a fracture. Skin bruise is a superficial injury which will heal soon. If in case you still have a doubt regarding bone fracture, you should consult an orthopedic doctor for physical evaluation of the same.

If you have pain around the soft tissue areas but not over the bone, you probably have a sprain, not a break. If you have pain over the knee bone, you most likely have a break. If you?re not able to walk on it, there?s a good chance you have a break. Thanku
