Constant right elbow cracking

Question

Asked for Male, 26 Years

My right elbow keeps cracking quite often. I don't feel any pain and I am able to execute any exercise without any discomfort. Also right is my dominant hand and there is no such problem with the left elbow. The cracking occurs mostly while stretching the elbow but it happens quite often. I had tennis elbow in the right hand about 8 months back from which I fully rehabilitated and there is no issue with tendon now. Kindly help.
