Hello, i noticed the knob on my stove was slightly rotated. im not sure how long it was like this, at most it was 24 hours. i dont know if any gas came out though. should i be concerned?

If your question relates to ill effect of natural gas on human body, usually it is fire hazard. If it is not in closed area then the dilution will be there. By now stove must be turned off . If you do not have symptoms at this time it is unlikely that you will get any symptoms from this gas leak if any. Definitely be more attentive in future. Hope it helps.
