A member asked:
Knees make crunching and popping sounds. hurts to kneel, squat, etc. i have rheumatoid arthritis in knees & ankles, not sure if related. any ideas?

Knee popping: You need to follow up with a Rheumatologist particularly at your age. You will need follow up xrays and labs. if this is due to your RA, your Rheumatologist will be able to tell by your xray and labs. There are great treatments for RA now, but they need to be started as early as possible and you need close follow up.
