Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice
it seems that you have sustained the injury in soft tissue i.e.muscle or tendons.
bone appears to be normal as you dont have pain in rest.
apply ice pack, take rest and over the counter painkillers,apply diclofenac gel locally.
hope your knee will get better by these, if pain persist after 1 week get xray and mri scan done.
Thanks
