Brief Answer:
Likely to be due to wear and tear.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The cause of your suffering is because of excessive physical exercises or strain on the knee joint.
You might have increased the physical exercise for which your body was not prepared.
For now my advice would be-
1. Take a break from excessive physical exercise for few days and do just walking.
2. Take balanced diet rich in calcium (1000mg/day) and vitamin D (1000 i.u. /day) along with vitaminB12, B6.
3. Take Ibuprofen to reduce pain and may do ice fomentation for few days. If you like you may have nutritional joint supplement like glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate.

I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
