The human body despite symmetry between right and left sides, is usually not perfectly symmetrical. Popping and clicking is common and if not interfering with eating or breathing, is unlikely to be dangerous. Working on good upright posture can be helpful, sitting upright and practicing mindful breathing. Persistent fevers, weight loss, difficulty swallowing would be signs of concern.
