 Sounds like torn cartilage.. In fact I'd bet on it... And I'm not a betting woman.

Yes I have experienced the same.  As we age the padding between muscles and bones can actually be worn away from an old injury or arthritis. The first time I heard mine I was home alone walking down the hall and turned around thinking someone was in the hall with me. In some cases this can be repaired.  I have had heart surgery that was not totally effective so being put to sleep to correct mine is not worth the chance on being put to sleep. Tell your husband I feel his pain. Take Care

It could also be bone fragments in the kneecap area. It almost sounds like what I had 4-5 yrs ago which was a torn ligament in my left knee which was painful and I had arthritis in my right knee also painful. Doc wanted to do surgery on left knee but said can't do anything for the right knee. I tried some purple powder and have been pain free both knees for 3.5 yrs.
