Ans: Hello Dr. Devendra Kumar. Thank you for the question. Since you did not mention your age, I cant definitely say what could be reason , however it is more suggestive towards osteoarthritis of Knee considering that pain started with one knee and there is crackling sound ( Crepitation) . I do suggest visiting Orthopedic Surgeon and taking X -ray to confirm diagnosis. Meanwhile do knee strengthening exercises like VMO Strengthening, Straight leg raising, Lunges and Squatting.
