A member asked:
Why do my knees make a cracking sound?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes they do: Knees can make sounds, and pop and crack. Typically it is painless, without associated symptoms. If it causes pain or limitations, that would warrant evaluation by an orthopedist. Like your knuckles or other joints, sometimes the knee will pop.
