Hi Larry,
Your symptoms seem to suggest some injury to soft tissue in your right knee like ligament sprain or rupture.It could be cruciate ligament injury.
I would suggest you take consultation with your Orthopedician. If you have severe pain you may take pain killers like Brufen, Ultracet for time being. you need to keep your knee from excessive or forcefull movements and you may apply crepe bandage, ice packs. Your doctor might suggest an MRI after physical examination if he doubts any rupture.
Hope I cleared your doubts. If you need any further advice, please let me help you.
