There is some very minor swelling around that area, but no visible bruising. Pretty much the same when I keep my leg bent but in that position it burns a little.

I'm going to call and set up an MRI in the morning if it still feels anything like this in the morning.
Its going to be a bit difficult to assess what it is until the swelling subsides. Go see an orthopedic specialist and he'll tell you if he thinks you need an mri. An mri is nothing if you don't have someone good to interpret it. You didn't really say how you did it, which might shed some light on what part you injured.
