The cracking and popping sound is called crepitius. Or crepitus.You might want to check spelling on that. I believe it is when cartilage has worn away and the sound is bone rubbing on bone.

Self diagnosing never goes well. Crepitius? Never heard of it. But everyone I know on this site and elsewhere, the primary symptom for us is pain then stiffness.

Hello, well the thing is i havent been diagnosed yet. Ive been silent about this situation. Ive done research and RA seems to be the only option. Crepitius is what im experiencing and it says thats developed from RA

How do you have RA and not have pain? Never heard of this before. How did they diagnose without multiple complaints about pain? I am confused. Anyway congrats on not having to deal with RA pain.
