Hello User ! The likely reason behind the popping may be chondromalacia, meniscal or a ligament pathology in your case. The clicking sounds on bending of knee with a crepitus is suggestive of chondromalacia. if this is associated with locking kind of feeling, it may be secondary to a meniscal pathology. if you also have instability while running or a sensation of giving way while you play sports, it might be the underlying Ligament pathology. Consider visiting your orthopaedic surgeon for better evaluation of pathology. Thanks
