Why do my knees sound like Rice Krispies?

Your knees can sound like Rice Krispies before knee replacement because fluid is getting pressurized in one part of the knee and popping into another part. The same thing happens when you crack your knuckles, says Dr. Alexander Orem. You're pressurizing fluid in one area that then pops into a low-pressure area. That's what creates the popping sound.
