I have elbows that pop when extended but do not cause pain or disturbance, will this lower my chances of getting in?

Good afternoon! We are unable to answer personal medical related questions on here. However, everyone joining the Army will go through a 2 day assessment prior to starting their phase one training. During this 2 day assessment you will be seen by a doctor at one of our medical facilities to discuss your medical history. The doctor will then make a decision about if the problem is compatible with being a soldier in the army! Alternatively, if you get in contact with your local careers centre and they may be able to advise you, I hope this helps.
