Suggest Treatment For Severe Knee Pain

I ve recently been walking alot to lose weight, roughly 45 to 60 minutes a day. My problem is that I have developed knee pain in the lower knee cap area, behind the patella causing flexion pain when I rise from a sitting position. What can I do to relieve the pain. Thank you. Cliff
