Hello, Thanks for your query. According to your description , pain over your knee seems to be inflammatory in nature. I advice you to give you rest to the part affected, take anti-inflammatory drug like motrin 1 tablet with food as and when required (upto 4 tablets daily) to reduce pain and inflammation and consult your doctor for thorough examination and rule out any infective cause.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query. Take care
