Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Sudden onset throbbing pain in both knee and ankles,without any local cause is most likely to be a radiating pain from back( sometimes there is no pain in the back).
I suggest pain killers , muscle relaxants and MRI . If pain does not reduce in few days then I would advice orthopedic consultation.
Thanks
