Usually kneecap: 'Popping' without pain is usually related to your kneecaps, is very common, and if not associated w/ any pain not a cause for concern.If the 'popping' or 'cracking' becomes painful , or u develop swelling in your knee(s), see your board certified orthopedic surgeon for evaluation . Best of Luck!
