Why does my foot make a grinding noise?
This builds up pressure in the joint, and when the joint moves quickly it creates a pop. While pops are relatively harmless, rubbing or grinding noises (known as crepitus) can be a sign of age related changes in the joint cartilage. Cartilage deteriorates as we get older. This is due to uneven joint surfaces.
Why does it sound like my joints are grinding?
A grinding or grating noise, called crepitus, can indicate arthritis. “Arthritis is the wearing down of the cartilage joint surface, so it’s now roughened and no longer smooth,” said Dr. Weiner. Sometimes tendons near joints can rub over bony prominences.

A fairly common cause of creaking and grinding is osteoarthritis when cartilage becomes worn and pieces of bone rub together. This is accompanied by pain and stiffness. Age and genetics play a major role in the onset of the disease.
How do you get air out of your joints?

In this video we drive a vehicle with a worn wheel bearing; then we go for another drive with a new wheel bearing installed – to illustrate that the grinding noise is gone. I also jack the vehicle up , shake the wheel to show the excessive movement with the worn bearing; and then do the same with a new bearing installed.
Why does my rear differential make a clunking noise?
If the pinion bearings are the problem, they create more of a whirring noise than a rumble because it turns several times faster than the carrier assembly. Regular clunking every few feet can also be an indicator of a broken pinion gear and/or chipped and damaged ring gear.
