What Can Cause Popping Sensation In The Knees?

Hi I m 24 years old, my knees have been popping ever since I can remember, as of lately my knees have stopped popping and all I feel in my right knee is very sharp pains and the pain gets so intense that I have to walk with a limp just for the pain to go away, I m not sure why this is happening to my knees, I plan on going to a hospital sometime soon for it but I would like to get more information about this before I go in and find out I m just overreacting it something. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and hopefully answering my question

Hi,

It might be due to retained foreign body in the joint cavity.

You can consult an orthopedician and get an MRI scan done.

If symptoms persist, you might require an arthroscopy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
