My foot big toe when i move it up and down making sound like when you crackling fingers and the same happens with my right hand but in lower sound?

Gas release: Most commonly due to nitrogen gas in the metatarsal joint of the first toe. If you are concerned about a "cracked bone" making noise, this would not make a repeated popping sound and the pain, swelling and discoloration would be considerable. If you continue to manipulate the toe you may create soreness or swelling.
