Such pain could be mechanical in nature. Excessive stress on joint during daily activities could result such pain. Alternatively, some cartilage issue might also be the cause of knee pain. For an accurate diagnosis, a detailed assessment with clinical examination and proper history followed by appropriate investigations is needed.

Hi. If it's an on and off pain, and not severe, just do some knee strengthening exercises and apply ice packs. If you are overweight, try to reduce some weight.
Next Steps
If the pain is interfering with ADL (Activities of Daily life), then do seek a physical consultation.
