What Can Cause Popping Sensation And Severe Pain In The Knee Upon Bending It?

A few days back I kneeled down and my knee made a loud pop and I felt severe pain and it felt hot. Now everytime I bend my knee enough, it pops and I feel the same thing.I struggle to be able to straighten my leg as well. I can still walk but my leg feels uncomfortable when I do. What do you think is the cause?
