What Causes Pain In Thigh And Calf With Swelling In Knee After Injury?

Injured my left leg spotting someone during back squats. I was of balance and felt something pull in the back of my left leg. It has been two days and I have a lot of muscle pain in my thigh and calf. I have also noticed swelling and pain in my knee as well. Slight tingling sensation that goes through the back of my leg through the bottom of my foot. Is this something I need to have evaluated?
