What Causes Cracking Sound In The Right Knee Upon Bending It?

Hi,I am a 19-year old female experiencing a squishing/cracking sound in my right knee when I bend it. It has never bothered me before until now, and is starting to become painful. I played sports in high school, but am not real active anymore. The only other time I can think of me hurting my knee was dancing and I heard two loud pops, and I couldn t walk on my knee for a day or so. Should I be concerned?

Hello,

It could be an entrapment of foreign body and locked knee.

Consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan for further assessment.

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