I don't think you need to worry about any long term consequences of this injury. The swelling and discomfort are the result of injury to the tissue. In a few days, you may notice some discoloration where the tissue was bruised.
The rule of thumb is to apply ice immediately after injury (ice-injury) and apply heat, like a warm towel or heating pad at low setting, later (heat-later).
