Hi...

Your pain and popping sensation in your knee is due to excessive wear and tear in that knee...

Nothing to worry...

I recommend you to..
Lessen the load over the painful knee...
Do rehabilitation for both knees to avoid anymore complications...
Do lot of icing in the painful knee..
Gentle massage over the front thigh muscles to lessen the compression forces on knee cap on knee..
Do strengthening of gluteus and hamstrings..core stability...

Hope this is helpful for you..
Kindly revert back in case you need any further help in this regard....
