Brief Answer:
Wear knee brace

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to Ask A Doctor service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This could just be a muscle spasm due to exercise or it could be related to ligament injury. It should clear with complete rest to the knee. Can wear knee brace for few days. If it doesnot clear, I will suggest that you visit an orthopedic surgeon for further evaluation.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
