Is Swollen, Senstive To Touch Area On Leg After Being Kicked Serious?

I was playing in a soccer game last Monday. I don't remember which event caused it my trauma, it was when I was kicked in my right leg or another time a defender and I both kicked the ball at the same time, full force, from opposite sides of the ball. I limped home, took some ibuprofen and iced it. I was limping for a few days. There isn't any bruising but it is still swollen, even today and is sensitive to touch. It's in an odd spot, right side of my right leg, just above my ankle going up my leg about 5 inches and up and down the muscle between the tibia and fibula. I jogged on it 20 minutes without much pain, and also had a massage Friday night, which was uncomfortable when she massaged there (she knew about it). I'm not sure what to make of it since it's a large area of my leg and no bruising.
