U need to get more weight-bearing exercise, like walking & swimming to strengthen the leg muscles!. Use compressive therapy joint supports to increase blood circulation & improve joint mobility when u are driving or sitting for any period of time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
The ligaments and tendons in your knee are getting molded to the positions they are in while you are sitting all day!. When they snap and crack it is them strecthing and working the way they should!. Like cracking ice off of a car that has sat for a period of time in the cold!. your knees don't have to be in the cold but nonuse of them for a extended period will do the same thing!. The best way to resolve this is to just stand and walk around for 5 min every hour and you shouldn't have a problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
