I could still do without the knee pain though.
Do leg stretches every day. Most knee pain is associated with certain muscles overpowering others in rest state. Stretch them out to reset that balance. It's worked wonders for me, started seeing results in ~2weeks.
My knee pain is associated with arthritis, unfortunately. I wish stretching helped. I'm even a couple years younger than OP, but when I walk up stairs it sounds like I'm crinkling two big balls of cellophane.
