Cracking and popping is usually not a problem unless there is pain associated with it. So don't worry about the cracking unless you develop some sort of pain. Be well.

My knee hurts and locks when I run. Also, when I try stretching my IT band, it seems to injure it. Do you have any advice for me on how to treat this injury?

hey i play soccer and i have the exact same pain on my left knee........the only difference is that the bump...is ...not large....but it is there....and god forbid somebody touch...or hit tht knee....,,do u have any advise?

[Dafunnyalbo]

i have that too... i also play basketball and am 5ft 10 and it is very sensitive. If someone touches it slightly it hurts and there is a very large bump right under the knee cap and doesnt go away unless i stop playing. My doc said i should stop playing ball but LOVE FOR THE GAME!!!!

ive had a continous problem on left knee, the pain is usually on the inside of my knee.seems like the bone pops out a bit more then it should, i had a couple ex-rays on it and they havent found any problems, seems like my knee will heal and i can walk again normally, then out of the blue a crack or quick turn i have to limp around for a few days... so my guess is i have to get surgery cause it never seems to heal, if you have any ideas i would love to hear them.. thanks alot!

that's very informative maam. thanks. btw, i relate to this knee pain issue, in my case though its knee pain which renders me sort of powerless when im about to jump specially during half kneebend position. its so painful that it prevents me to fully explode for a jump, it feels like my knees would crack.
