Is it weird for my lower thigh to be sore after bumping my knee?

Earlier today, I was stepping down off a chair and my knee (around the middle knee cap area) hit the corner of my bed pretty part. It hurt a ton at first but only resulted in a slight bruise and doesn't even hurt at all now. It was only my knee that hit, but now my lower right thigh feels sore. It feels a little like a sore muscle, and almost like there is a bruise deep in the thigh.

I am positive that my thigh did not hit the bed, though! There is no bruising or swelling on my thigh at all, it's just sore... Just wondered if anyone had any ideas why!
 
You may have hit a tendon that runs from your knee through the thigh, so the best thing to do would be to rest, and to not strain that knee, or leg as much as possible.
