You say it used to be the left part of the knee, however which knee used to be it? You would have sprained your ACL, however you might be in additional discomfort I'm definite. Not running round for a pair days and seeking to run. But a meniscal tear sounds suitable. The preliminary popping could also be the preliminary tear. The popping whilst running would be out of your femur (thigh bone) rubbing the flap of meniscus. Is your knee vastly swollen? Is it difficult to bend.. love it looks like there may be plenty of strain within the knee? Do you spot any bruising or discoloration? Have you spotted your knee locking on you latterly, like you're running and abruptly you can't get your knee to straighten utterly? All would be indicators of a meniscal tear. Seeing a physician is utterly as much as you. I'm very designated I tore my meniscus a couple of years in the past and haven't begun to get it formally visible approximately (regardless that I did have the workforce physician participate in a few checks after a recreation final yr.. he suggestion the identical factor I did). Depending at the severity of the tear, you'll be able to get it repaired or simply deal with the indications (what I've been doing for the beyond few years - NSAIDS and ice).

It could be gas escaping or it could be ligaments snapping back into place. If there is no pain associated with the popping noises, it's not something you need to worry about. It's no more harmful than cracking your finger knuckles.
If it hurts when it pops, see a doctor, you may need an orthopedist to scope your knee.

You have probably got air inside the knee joint and it 'pops' as it is expelled, have it checked by your local doctor just to be on the safe side. It's probably nothing serious. Have a good day.

Because you're not stretching properly beforehand or afterwards...stretching is the most important part of your run, make sure you do at least 15 minutes of it before, and about 10 minutes after.

Why don't you see your doctor on this??? You might need some glusomine.
