Hello there,, Well what exactly do you mean by knee twitching?? Is it like something is pulling from inside?...muscle twitching is a common occourance....so the symptoms need to be accurately addressed. Cracking noise if not accompinied with knee instability or pain ia not a problem as such. Do consult online for proper tailormade advise and treatment plan. Regards.
