Experiencing Pain From Top Of Patella And Radiating Up To Thigh , What Is The Treatment ?

I hit my knee on the corner of a desk at work and now my knee is very painful at the top of the patella and radiates up my thigh. It is especially painful to bend and bear weight at the same time. it is not as painful to bear weight as long as my knee is not bent. Any ideas?
