Slight shaking when accelerating and turning...

Well let me first say this is after I jumped a curb. Only the front wheel came onto the curb. Anyways. Sometimes (not all the time, but alot) when ever I accelerate or accelerate while turning right(doesn't happen when turning left) it seems to shake a bit. I can mostly feel it from the wheel and the gas pedal. It seems to be coming from my drivers side front tire(the tire that jumped the curb). Well I checked my suspension and steering components and they seem to be fine. I've heard that it could be my bearings or maybe even my rotor. Anyone have this problem before? THanks.

You may need an alignment which would get thrown out of wack if you hit the curb.

The other thing it could be is the balance of that wheel. Have it checked out... It probably won't cost a lot.
