If you patella (knee cap) is rubbing against the other bones in you leg then you need to go to the doctor. It could be that the cartilage in your knee is gone or starting to go and that is serious and could lead to bigger problems than having your leg in a cast.

perhaps you're hyperextending your knees when you stand up, you end up getting locked knees which can be really painful. Try standing up without hyperextending your knees but try to lift your patelas (knee caps) up by engaging your quadriceps.

You will have to go to the doctor, There's nothing you can do.
Go get an MRI, Be carefull, Hopefully you have insurance.
Good luck
