It can be simply a tendon or ligament that is very slightly off position and clicks back into position as it puts itself back into place with movement. It can also be a sign of tendinitis if there is repetitive motion of those joints or other chronic stresses that could cause the tendon to become inflamed (like in "tennis elbow") . This can also occur if you have Arthritis in those joints since there is often too little synovial fluid and perhaps too much wear on the joint cartilage (or even down to the bone) from the disease process that rubs and clicks when moved. If there is pain associated or weakness, numbness or other concerning symptoms, you should get an exam from a health care professional.
