How to prevent foot and knee pain after running? (piefed.social)

There are some days where I've done so much running that it becomes painful to walk, which only worsens if I don't rest, and I've recently had some issues with knee pains. How can these be mitigated/treated/avoided?

You can treat them with RICE. Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation. The most important thing is to not overdo it in the first place, though. If you are regularly encountering pain after running then you are pushing your body too hard.
