How Can Leg Pain With Bruised Sensations Be Treated?

Hello, yesterday afternoon, just above my foot, at the front of my leg, started really hurting to touch. It feels like a bruise but there s no discolouration. I m really baffled as I can t remember hitting it, but there s every chance I did. I m quite freaked out about it, and was hoping for some reassurance.
