Hello,
It may be due to injury.
For further assessment, I would suggest you to consult with orthopedician for detailed clinical examination.
He may require MRI knee as per evaluation.
Mean while, for pain you can take tablet acetaminophen.
Use knee cap.
Use support while walking.
Avoid direct pressure on that knee.
You may require surgical intervention as per MRI report.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
