When i do push-ups my left elbow cracks every time i go down (but NOT when i go up) past the 90 degree point. What's wrong with my elbow? Should i stop doing push-ups?

IDK but sometimes when I do squats my knees will crack and my BF's always like, "Maybe you need some WD-40." It's really embarrassing. I've always wondered what it was.

I strongly think that you should consult a doctor. An orthopedic.I'm sure he or she will recommend for an xray. From there, you'll know what to do.

this happens to me too, i'm not sure why, but my doctor told me that it's the tenden slipping off the bone, he said it's nothing to worry about.

nothing is wrong, but you should not bend a load bearing joint like that past 90 degrees and still put that much stress on it. same thing with your knees in a squat- never bend your knees greater than 90 degrees.

The tendon is moving off the bursa sack. You may have bursitis in that elbow.
