I have hurt both of my knees exercising. the entire knee hurts. they're not swollen or bruised no crunching but hurt a lot. what's the best treatment?

Rest: For overuse injuries it's best to take a break for a few days. Cold packs will help to reduce swelling and pain but be careful not to put frozen objects directly on the skin (bags of frozen peas work really well). You can also use an anti-inflammatory medication for a few days.
