General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

If you experience the thumping noise without other symptoms no treatment should be required, but if you have other symptoms you will need treatment. The treatment depends on the diagnosis. I suggest to do a knee X-ray for further evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
