Hi,
It may need to be evaluated by X-ray of the knees and to get an orthopedic surgeon review to rule out any signs of early osteoarthritis. Using oral analgesic like Acetaminophen or Ibuprofen can be of help temporarily.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
