What Causes Subtle Crunching Sounds From My Knee?
Both my knees make very subtle crunching sounds when I climb stairs, although I have no pain whatsoever. I m 60 y.o. and in great shape, engaging in weight training three times a week and riding a stationary bike a mile each of the three days. Should I be concerned about my knees?
