Is Cracking Sound In The Knee A Concerning Matter?
Hello my name is Samantha and I have a question about my knee 2 days ago I was takeing down some stuff off of my well and my knee made a sound like something broken and it sounds lose inside and my other knee doesn t sound like that and I really don t know what to do I am warryd about my knee please let me know what it might be and what it means ???
Cracking sound from knee during certain position or movement is more suggestive of ligament or meniscus injury.
So, it is better to consult orthopedic doctor and get done clinical examination, x-ray and MRI of affected knee joint. If all these are normal, then no need to worry for any major knee injury.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
