What Causes Popping Sensation On Back While Walking?

My back pops when I walk. It is not painful, just annoying. Like something rubbing together. Seems to be mostly mid to lower back, not always in the same spot, but will pop with every step sometimes. Will stop if I adjust my posture, but not always.

Dear; you might have degenerative disc disease in your back. However, it is not normal to ihave this noise in your back everytime you move, I recommend you to have a back X-ray to to a basic evaluation of your back. Good posture will help and a back support too, but you need to find out why is doing this . Decrease space between the vertebrae can cause this problem.
I hope my advise has been helpful.
