When a joint pops or cracks a couple of things could be causing this. The first is when you bend the joint a tendon may move out of place and then when you stand up the cracking you hear is the tendon returning to it's usual space. Also the joints all contain synovial fluid. This fluid lubricates the joints but it also contains oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen. When you stretch the joint by bending you are also stretching the synovial capsule and the gases are rapidly released as bubbles in the joint and you will hear them pop or crack when you stand back up. Arthritis can also cause popping and cracking in joints. It's not serious unless you have pain, swelling, or a deformity at the joint.

No you did not:) this is just lactic acid being released from yor joint. It's just like popping your fingers or neck, and won't have any bad effects.
