The sudden pain could be due to muscle catch or ligament sprain in the right knee joint. Rest your knees well. Yes, knee pad would help you too.

Apply Volini spray to the affected knee as and when required.

Continue to take D 500 Cal on a daily basis. It will help you.

You should be fine in a couple of days.
