Hello,
There are many medical conditions related to your symptoms. The symptoms can be related to bursitis which is the inflammation of the bursa. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pressure. I also suggest to avoid overuse of the knee.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
