Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I think there can be an issue with your knees such osteoarthritis.
I can recommend you to do a x-ray of both knees to check for osteoarthritis of knee joints.
You can use antinflamatory drugs such advil or naproxen for.. Try to have as much rest as possible.
Also other issues can be podagra of the knees that is caused by accumulation of uric acid in joint
You may need to check uric acid levels on blood.
