A member asked:
Sometimes my knee seems to 'pop' out, especially when standing up, and often hurts afterwards. it eventually feels normal again. is this serious?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: Any painfu lpopping in the knee should be evaluated. It is certainly not normal, and it could be a sign that damage is occuring to the cartilage inside the knee. An exam and possibly some imaging studies would help determine the cause and your treatment options.
