Specializes in Orthopedic Surgery

Unusual: Typically crepitus is caused by degeneration of the knee, which would be unheard of in a toddler. Alternatively, inflammation or infection could cause crepitus, so if there is associated pain or redness or fever or any other concerning sign, see your physician.
