The cracking sound when you go up and down stairs or something similar is called patellofemoral syndrome. The kneecap is not going up and down straight it goes off to the side or something like that. There is a small brace you can wear called a Chopat knee strap. I believe it was designed for girls that played basketball and were up and down on their knees a lot. They're fairly inexpensive and work pretty good.
