A member asked:
Why can i pop my right knee? should i be concerned that sometimes due to weather and consistent popping my knee will swell? mri shows no torn ligature

Needs attention: Popping noises from a joint is not normal, and it need not be a ligamental tear. Cartilage may be displaced, ligaments "loose", really any number of minor or major things could be at play here. Go see an orthopedist. Good luck!
