Ice your knee. Make sure that you are wearing good running shoes. Warm up first and always cool down by stretching after you walk/run. Ease back into it. If pain persists I would take a few days off and pay attention to what's going on with it.

In the meantime RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression & Elevation) to alleviate the symptoms.
