Edit: clunking and shifting can also occur when the bursa sac is injured. The bursa sac is what provides the lubrication for you joint and allows it to move smoothly.
Very true, just the way he described it was pretty much what I went through when I hurt mine so I figured I'd throw my medically uninformed opinion in there.

You're right though, you'll know you did something pretty quick if its the RC, it hurts like hell.
