I used 1 1/2 lbs of dried Black Eyed Peas. I sterilized 3 pint jars. Rinse and soak beans overnight. The next day put drained beans in a large saucepan. Add fresh water to cover beans by 2 inches. Bring beans to a low boil for 30 minutes, stirring frequently.
If the noise is not painful and more of a grinding when the knee bends it is probably a sign of inflamed cartilage. We often call this chondromalacia. This comes from the wear and tear of the surface mainly under the knee cap. Usually this can be a feeling more than a noise. This is âcrepitusâ and less serious.
Another common problem that results in a popping or grinding sensation is roughness on the undersurface of the patella that used to be called chondromalacia and is often labeled as patellofemoral pain syndrome, or runnerâs knee. Often you may feel the popping, grinding or crunching more than you can hear it. To feel this, try squatting with your hand flat over the front of your knee. Real worry: When a patient says to me, âDoc, I heard a pop and my knee swelled,â it is definitely a cause for concern.
