What Is The Solution For Knee Popping While Dancing?

I'm a dancer and I have my splits. But recently on my left side, when I try to slide into a split, something under my left knee pops. It doesn't hurt. It is strange and I want to be sure that I won't actually hurt myself. What is it and how can I help it?

hi
that sounds like meniscal or a ligament injury
i would prescribe a rest for a few days
you should use a knee cap

if you a professional or take your dance seriously
do get an mri of the affected knee
it will be important to know and realize the status of soft tissues of the knee

meanwhile
dont forget your kneecaps even when u walk normally

best of luck
