Heard a “pop” in your knees? | Davis Orthopaedics — Phoenix | Phoenix AZ
Hearing popping sounds in your knee is not as serious as it sounds.
The knee is a hinge joint that moves forward and backward with limited sideward movement. Side-to-side movements often leads to injury.
Knee popping is a common occurrence. The sound is produced when carbon dioxide mixes with the synovial fluid in the joint, creating a bubble that pops. The same gas bubble that pops when you crack your knuckles.
Nevertheless, if you experience other symptoms such as grating noises, pain, friction, or a loss of mobility, it may indicate an injury that requires medical attention. Seek medical treatment immediately.
