Suggest Treatment For Severe Knee Pain

I have pain on the interior side of my left knee, sort of right to the side of the kneecap. It hurts a bit during activity, however, it really hurts when I am in bed! If I turn onto my left side, it really starts to hurt, almost as if something is shifting in the knee. The pain increases when I bend the knee. Any ideas? Thank you.
