cracking sounds in joints are majority of times normal its due to pulling of the bubbles formed inside the joint apart cavitation intracarticular adhesions if you continue to produce cracking sounds from your joints it leads to arthritis....so try to avoid this.... if pain is present consult orthopedician..
