Question:

when ever i bend them i can hear and feal a pop. my mom says to quit skating, but its realy all i have. i wanna know wat exactly the problem is cause noone can realy give me a strait answer. I need a answer cause it feals like its just getting worse and worse. is there any kind of treatment i can get?
am i going to get some kind of disease in the joints?
do i need to buy more padded shoes to soften my landings?
idk wat the problem is but all i know is i need help.

Answers:
Hmm
Well, you could go to a doctor and get an x-ray and see whats up

I know that my knee clicks when I go up stairs and what not, but thats due to knee surgery

Maybe like you suggested buy some shoes with extra padding

The big question is Does it hurt when it pops?
I know when I was going through my knee problems the doc didnt really "care" about the "popping"
just the mere fact of the "popping" causing me pain

well i hope i was some what of assistance

good luck
and have fun skate boarding!
