Sometimes knee pain happens when the calves aren't absorbing their fair share of impact. After you heal up, maybe train your calves more or stretch them more.
As for now, to heal faster, get a few of those hot water rubber bags and put boiling water in them - apply to your knees for a few minutes and then rotate with ice packs. Ice constricts everything, pushes blood out, and the heat expands everything, bringing new blood in. New blood in = more nutrients to cells. Do this as much as you can, I find it really helps speed up recovery of injury, bruises, sprains, ligament damage.
Take in lots of protein, supplements and vitamins, especially glutamine, glucosamine, msm, chondroitin, calcium, vitamin C and get lots of rest and stop workouts for your legs for 2 weeks. After the 2 weeks, if it feels better, do regular, no resistance range of motion activities. And get lots of sleep. This is what I would do
