Hello,
Pain may be due to quadriceps muscle sprain. Over-exercise will lead to muscle fatigue and accumulation Of waste products of metabolism responsible for pain.
Take rest and avoid squats for a week. take tab Ibuprofen thrice a day. Local application of ice packs and limb elevation will help. If a not relieved visit to orthopaedic surgeon is recommended.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
