Chances are you just gave it a good bruise, I personally would only go to the doctor if I had a problem walking. Its only been two days right now what you should be doing is staying off the knee and icing it down to relieve some of the swelling. Take Motrin or Advil for the pain those are anti inflamatories and work better for those sort of injuries. If it doesnt stop hurting after a week with no improvement at all then you should take a trip to the doctor to be sure everything is alright. You may also want to pick up a knee brace at the drug store they help hold the knee in place and take pressure off the join to allow better stability when walking.
