How should I treat my injured knee?

Question

I have a sports injury in my knee supposedly from running in old running shoes on a hard surface. I haven't run in two months now, but my knee still has a problem. Whenever I put weight on it while it is not fully extended (especially while going up stairs or crouching), I feel a pain along the back side of the joint. I may just consult my doctor, unless this is a common sports injury that has a simple remedy.
