See your doctor: Your complaints can only be assessed with a thorough history and physical examination. May be related to chondromalacia patella. Need to be checked and may need MRI.

Strengthen: quadriceps muscles and tape your kneecap based on the direction it goes when your walk or run. This can be accomplished by seeing a sports training physical therapy program.
