Why do some joints “click” and is this necessarily a bad thing?

As above, I have played football all my life and my right ankle and even toes click often, I can almost do it on demand. Why is this, and could this lead to medical complications; i.e.: arthritis?

It is not necessarily bad. Can be though. My knee clicked for years. “Nothing, nothing, nothing” until I finally got referred to a specialist, who told me how bad my knee was and that all the previous radiologists I’d seen were idiots.

I’ve got a 6mm disparity in legs which has pushed my kneecaps inward and one of them popped the fluid to back of kneecap, that’s why it clicks
