Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
After going through your history, I wanna assure you that there is nothing to be worried as it is a normal healing process.
I would suggest you to visit an orthopedician for detailed examination of your knees and radiographic examination to rule out any fracture.
Meanwhile you can take Nifen MR 2 times a day for pain relief.
Hope my answer will help you.

Dr. Himesh
