Sprain/strain: This sounds like a sprain or strain of the knee causing some inflammation. If you had any traumatic injury, you might also have a torn ligament. However your symptoms seem mild. I recommend daily icing, limited ibuprofen/aleve, and consider a soft knee brace. If not better in 3-4 weeks see your doc.
