it depends on if you have an injury or there is some other cause of the pain. without knowing more it is tough to tell you what might help. you should rest your knee and walk on it as little as possible for a couple of days. you could try over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen. also if there is swelling icing your knee will help. you can also wrap it to help prevent swelling. and when possible keep it elevated to decrease swelling. however if the pain is severe or does not start getting better after a couple of days you should see your doctor to see what's going on.
