Hi Deborah and Debra, I also "click" and "pop" often when I walk... In looking back I cannot remember when my ankle did not click when first initiating movement on rising. My big toe poppin' occasionally I noticed right after a car accident in '91... My knee (these are all on my right side, my "parkie" side) clicks once in a while lately and it is associated with an annoying (almost painful) sensation.... I think it is PD... I've also noticed minor tension and stress in my right knee when climbing stairs lately... cheers ..... murray On 19 Apr 2002, at 18:02, Deborah Setzer wrote: > Debra, > > The only other thing that was suggest to me was that I get my doctor > to > order a bone scan.
