I'm not a doctor, but both my knees crack constantly as long as I can remember. I was told many years ago that I had bilateral plica syndrome. If you look that up, it does mention clicking of the knee as a symptom.

Why would your knees crack and pop all the time?

Popping or cracking knuckles is a result of releasing gas out of a pocket of liquid in your joints (if I remember correctly). Basically, it's kind of like opening a can of soda. It isn't harmful and contrary to popular opinion doesn't cause arthritisKnees, on the other hand, usually pop because of ligaments snapping over bony protrusions. This again is harmless unless you're really twisting your kness.Why it would happen "all the time" depends on how often you're talking about, but my knees crack and pop at least 5 - 10 times a day, and it's considered normal for me.More information:I get that all the time. I will stretch my leg and my knee will crack. I will start jogging and my knees will crack. I can be sitting down and flexing my leg and they will just continually crack.It's probably a ligament going over or hitting a bone. But I like the satisfaction of a loud crack that comes from the knee; it's pretty cool.When my knees would crack it was the begining of osteoarthritis of the knees. My knees have been getting worse over a period of years and now are very bad. I suggest you go to the doctor and get a X-Ray so you know what you are looking at. If indeed it is arthritis, it will be helpful to know the things you can do to help protect your knees, because when they are gone, they are gone.There a certain fluid in your joints that when you make a certain movement, releases pressure, and creates bubbles that pop. usually, you can only crack a joint every thirty minutes, because the fluid has to to reform. My knees crack continuously due to a certain syndrome. If I lie down, and bend my legs back and forth, there is constant cracking, about every two seconds.


What will crack cocaine do to you if it is not used for medical reasons?

There is no medical use for crack. There is a medical use for regular cocaine -- it is used as an anesthetic in eye surgeries -- but not crack cocaine. Crack is a highly addictive drug (as is regular cocaine). Although it is not physically addictive (there are no physical withdrawal symptoms) it is highly psychologically addictive (meaning, it causes your brain to crave more of it). It is nearly impossible to do crack without becoming addicted to it. Smoking crack causes you to lose all your inhibitions and judgment, so that you will do anything -- like steal or prostitute yourself -- to get more of it. Sometimes crackheads are called "chickenheads." This is because, when you run out of crack, the craving to do more is so irresistible, that you may find yourself down on your hands and knees on the floor, searching for any tiny pieces of crack that you may have dropped. People who do this look like chickens pecking at the ground, and thus are called "chickenheads." Smoking crack also destroys your lungs.
