Moving my knees in a bent position or getting up when my knees are bent hurts the kneecap area.(not once they're bent, only moving them there) advice?

Could be torn: meniscus. Try otc anti inflammatory such as ibuprofen or naprosyn, (naproxen) and resting them for a while. If that does not work, see a doctor for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
