A member asked:
Knee crepitus( no pain involved), while walking down the stairs since yesterday. is it possible to go away after resting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only way to assess crepitus in a knee joint is imaging and direct examination, speculation leaves too many unanswered questions in the follow-up here without a baseline evaluation by your primary dic or an orthopedic MD
