@ar7: not sure exactly what you mean by popping. I do a daily set of exercises for Sciatica, one of them is resting a foot on the opposite bent knee while in a prone position. Whenever I start that move – getting the TKR knee bent and angled over – the tendon over the knee cap makes an audible popping sound. Otherwise, it’s simply clicking with every step I take.
My knee will make a loud clunking sound when i walk or move it side to side. i also have pain and swelling in the knee area. i am a very active person and the knee is constantly sore unless i sit around..
