Sound from knee is usually because of snapping tendons. Cycling is a good exercise to get rid of it. Over dose of calcium may be harmful.

Popping or cracking noises could just be gas bubbles bursting within the fluid surrounding the joint, or the sound of ligaments and tendons stretching and releasing. A soft snapping or clicking sound is also sometimes caused by a tight muscle or tendon moving over a bony structure.
