Q: when walking, my knees often click until they finally pop, then the clicking stops. the *pop* sounds and feels different from the click. this happens numerous times throughout the day. is this a knee disorder?

: If there's good knee joint functioning and no associated pain on motion, clicking&amp;popping from the knee is usually not pathological and is caused by movement of tendons and ligaments. If you still have concerns, consult an orthopedic specialist for advice.
