Hello,
It could be an arthritis related problem. As a first line management you can take analgesics like paracetamol or Aceclofenac for pain relief. You can also opt for physiotherapy. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedic and get evaluated. An MRI scan may be required for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing you all the best.
