It is most likely anterior knee pain (get worse with stairs). If it is - it is due to patellar maltracking. Do VMO exercises.

⢠Avoid Squatting-
⢠Quadriceps Exercises- Lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain.
⢠Core Strengthening Exercise- Straight Leg Raised With Toes Turned Outward, repeat 10 times, twice a day.
⢠Hams Stretching- lie straight, take the leg up, pull the feet towards yourself, with a elastic tube or normal belt. repeat 10 times, twice a day.

25 is quite young an age to get irregular knee pains. If there's no history of direct hit or fall then you should consult a doctor as soon as possible. She might be having muscular weakness or wearing a wrong footwear.
So I advice you to consult a Physiotherapist as well.
