Why is my ankle popping?

Question

I've had this problem for a while, but don't know why it happens or what caused it.

Whenever I rotate my ankles or flex my legs, my ankles make this strange popping noise. The sound is very pronounced and usually occur in numbers and occurs when I do something as simple as run down a flight of stairs.

This has been happening for a good 10 years -- it's nothing recent. I found it embarrassing in ballet and though it caused me no pain, it often interfered with my performance.

Any ideas?
