Avoid sitting Cross legged.
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.
Sports Taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area
Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold).

Do you have any buckling sensation while kicking the ball or while running or climbing down the stairs? If you always feel that the affected knee is not behaving like the other Bimal knee then you need a thorough clinical evaluation by a sports injury specialist.
An MRI of the knee will help in clinching the diagnosis but it's best done after consulting an Orthopedic knee surgeon.
At least get an X-ray of the knee done. You may require good physiotherapy for the knee if some weakness if your thigh muscles has set in.
Next Steps
Consult a knee specialist at the earliest.
