A cracking noise in the ankle, often referred to as crepitus, can occur due to various reasons, such as the movement of tendons or ligaments over bony structures or the release of gas bubbles in the joint fluid. It is usually harmless if there's no accompanying pain or swelling. However, if the cracking is persistent or accompanied by discomfort, it may be a sign of an underlying issue, such as Arthritis or an injury, and consulting a healthcare professional is advisable.
