I would get into your surgeon sooner rather than later. Just tell them it looks infected to get someone's arse into gear! Your images a rather blurred so it would be nice if you can upload some that we can see. The bruising looks lateral and potentially above the joint line. If could potentially be from the site of the graft's fixation through the femur but it's very hard to say from these images alone.
Did the swelling happen at the time of the pain? Was it very rapid or are we just seeing bruising on what was swollen any how? Also was this a hamstring graft?
A bit more information is needed to provide some more insite
