Sounds very much like what I had, called "osgood schlatters" or something. Don't do any exercise on it. Go to the doctors. If you can, don't walk on it. Definatly don't run on it. And don't cycle. Every day of exercise means a few weeks of resting or something.

Actually exercise with osgood schlatters is better then doing nothing, as it stiffens the joint up.

Hey, I had it for 2 years because I exercised. Don't do any exercise until you've spoken to a doctor.
