Tendonitis/Mensiscus: Get evaluated and consider imaging such as an MRI to evaluate your cause of pain. Initial MRI's can sometimes be negative or perhaps your pain is coming from another issues like a stress fracture, tendonitis, etc.

Knee pain : Tough without examination but if it still bothers you then go back. Till then take anti inflammatory drugs, ice, etc. You may need an MRI or physical therapy.
