Im having pain within my knee when its fixed for short time, is it a serious situation or normal one and what treatment should i fol

Patello-femoral pain is worse when you sit for long periods and get up out of a chair or the car, or when climbing stairs. Often, people experience a grinding or crunching sensation in the knee joint.
Outside of traumatic events (such as tearing an ACL playing sport, or accidentally shooting yourself in the knee ), the most common causes of knee pain that I see are :
>POOR DAILY HABITS
Let’s face it; we’re a society that loves to sit all day. Unfortunately for us, being in a seated position for too long causes our bodies to start making structural adaptations that aren’t all that positive for our posture.
Notably for our knees, sitting for long periods of time causes tightness in our hips, and hip dysfunction definitely has the ability to cause knee pain.
SECOND
>POOR TRAINING HABITS
Most training programs increase knee pain, rather than decrease it. This comes down to either a lack of individualisation (i.e. not having a program tailored to your body’s needs), a lack of knowledge (getting a program from someone who doesn’t understand anatomy), or simple neglect.
Needless to say, a great strength training program can help you make giant strides forward with your pain management, whilst a poor program can be a catalyst to you needing surgery – so you must be careful in who you choose to pay for advice.
THIRD
>IGNORING THE PROBLEM
Although not technically a cause of knee pain, it is something that I find causes minor knee pain (that could be easily fixed), to turn into something much more serious.
with any pain ,seeing a doctor with proper diagnose will be much helpful and protect from having more complications
> if you’ve got chronic pain, you need to get a diagnosis from
>Get up and move every 20-30mins to stop postural changes occurring, and thereby saving us from some problems down the track.
>by doing some hip flexor stretches at are desk, we not only stop poor postural habits from getting a grip on us, but we can also start to reverse them.
>To find a position of comfort. Because in the position of comfort the knee feels safe, supported, and listened to. In this position of comfort, the body’s self-corrective reflexes engage and the body spontaneously lets go of the tension, pain, stress, or discomfort it is holding onto due to the initial trauma it experienced from the martial arts training.
So what does this mean in terms that the average person with knee pain resulting from arthritis can understand.
1.) Drink more water
2.) Find a position of comfort in the knee to take the tension off of the knee so the water can wash it out.
>try to flex your knees more often when sitting this may flesh the water inside your knee and protect from degeneration or arthritis condition ,this can be done by simple walking if sitting long period by swinging your knees more often every several minutes
>you can take over the counter profen or proxen for pain beside above mentioned points if the pain persists then check with a doctor
Dealing with knee pain isn’t as easy as saying do *this* stretch before training, and then have at it. It’s takes a conscious and consistent effort, that not only needs to happen in the gym, but also in the office, and at home,
HOWEVER ,IF THE PAIN PERSISTS AND IS WORSEN ,inhibiting you from walking or moving or the up measures aren't helpful you must seek a doctor for further investigations and tests and proper diagnose and treatment

Knee pain results from either a sudden trauma or injury to the knee, or is a manifestation of a chronic condition like arthritis. The cause can be revealed through specific maneuvers done on the physical exam and by taking adequate history- like if you were hit on your knee or if you twisted it.
If you play sports like football or basketball, you're prone to knee injury, particularly anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury or meniscal tear(the meniscus is a structure made of cartilage that connects the thigh bone "femur" to the shin bone "tibia"). Patellar tendinitis due to trauma (inflammation of the tendon that attaches the patella - knee cap- to the shin bone) or bursitis due to overuse (the bursa is a sac like structure thatccontains fluid and prevents friction between the bones in a joint) can also cause pain. The extent of disability (that is how much the normal movement of the knee is affected) also helps in localizing the problem.
Arthritic problems should also be ruled out (like rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis) - these usually involve more than one joint and are associated with redness, swelling, and stiffness of the joints.
As such you're advised to have your knee examined by a physician. Meanwhile try to rest it and take pain medication.
