If you're ever wondering whether your internet presence makes a change: I was on the fence about going on a run today because I'm having mild knee pain, and you helped me decide against it. It's not worth it.
Nice. When I get knee pain (hasn't happened for several years now, knocks on wood), I usually go for a walk instead of a run, and see how the knee feels. Sometimes it's nothing, sometimes it's obvious that the knee needs some rest or a doctor visit.
I ended up swimming laps instead! I do walk about 5k a weekday anyway. It can be so hard to gauge what is and isn't bad enough to warrant rest or medical attention.
