I recently had surgery on my ankle and have started walking again. I find when I stretch or move it, it cracks and pops a lot more then it ever did before. This doesn’t cause pain, and sometimes even feels nice, but what makes the noise?

Holy cow. I am an orthopedist and the level of confidently incorrect in this thread is hurting my soul. The real answer is that it you can’t tell what is causing it without an exam. All of the right answers are here but you can’t tell which one it is. It is like saying you know why someone’s car isnt running well without looking at the car. BTW, the odds of this being synovial cavitation are nearly zero, much more likely some sort of soft tissue issue. You know that’s right because it rhymes.
