Hello.The first diagnosis to rule out is a rheumatic disease.
Pain doing no activity,trouble standing up and decreasing pain after moving
are typical of those diseases( Pain in both knees and pain without trauma, too)
You must go your doctor to examine you and request additional tests:
radiography and rheumatic factors in blood.
By now you can take some painkiller(for example paracetamol 1000 mgr thrice a day)
I wish you good health.
(In case the answer would have been useful please indicate this)
