Depends : Everyone experiences occasional aches and pains around a joint. It can be a problem if it lasts for more than a day or so and/or inhibits your activity and function. In addition to pain, if there is swelling, locking of the knee , unable to put weight on leg or redness you should seek medical attention sooner than later.
