HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, looking to the history given here it could be arthritic condition of knee, it may need some investigations for right diagnosis like MRI of knee joint, and also need orthopedic opinion, till then it can be managed with "Tab Diclofenac 50 mg" sustain release once in day, avoid bending the knee joint beyond 90 degree, hope this helps, take care and have nice day.
