A confucius story say.
2 monk went down the mountain to seek for food.
They came across this lady having difficulties crossing the river.
Thus the old monk carried her across and laid her down, continued thier journey after that.

The young monk find it so wierd. Why can senior touch a lady? He pondered but he didnt raise the question.
After 2 km of journey, he finally asked.
Young monk: Senior, how can you touch a lady when we are ourselves a monk?
Old monk: Look disciple, we are monks and it's only good for us to be helpful.
Old monk: But do learn something from here, I have only carried her across the river for 2m, why would you let a question in your mind linger for 2km after that before asking it?
This teaches us to solve and rid problems as soon as it can, keeping it doesn't help the situation in anyway.
PS: Don't magnify something which is so small and make you ponder over it for nothing.
