It's a synovial effusion or the layer surrounding the knee space getting inflamed due to over exertion - use ice, local analgesics and a crepe bandage.
Avoid squatting and climbing stairs if possible.
Use oral anti-inflammatory medicines - Piroxicam 20 mg once a day/ Aceclofenac 100 mg in combination with paracetamol twice a day or any other NSAID for 5 days.
Get evaluated for possible early arthritic changes and life style modifications to manage the same
