A member asked:

My wife's two knees produce some "bone sound" when bending, and she feel some pain after a long walk. what can the cause be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Many possibilities: Pops or sound in the knees are not necessarily related to a bone problem and sometimes are present in people that do not have a knee problem. Knee pain after walking cannot be diagnosed without a medical evaluation. Strengthening of the thigh muscles might help by providing stability to the joint.
