How can one pop a locked knee?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dangle and rotate: If your knee is locking up, it usually means you have a meniscus tear. Sometimes letting it dangle over the chair and slowly rotating and bending it will free up the piece of meniscus that gets entrapped and blocks motion. You need to see a surgeon an get it arthroscoped if it is locking up.
