All joints make sounds that's because there is popping of air bubbles that are contained in the synovial fluid across all of them Some people have less clicks and some have more
Next Steps
The question is if you have any other associated symptom with it like pain, instability locking etc
Health Tips
Don't worry about the sounds and don't wish to get them treated unless you have any other associated symptoms alongside that
