Brief Answer:
Get an xray done.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Pain in your knee could be due to muscle strain or arthritis. I suggest you to get an xray done to rule out any arthritic changes.
Meanwhile avoid any activity that aggravate the pain. You can take anti inflammatory drug like ibuprofen to reduce pain.

Hope this helps you.

Warm regards.
