Because he felt crumby.
The joke “Why did the cookie go to the doctor? Because he felt crumby” is a play on words that hinges on the double meaning of “crumby.” In one sense, “crumby” refers to the small pieces or crumbs that break off from a cookie. In another sense, “crumby” sounds like “crummy,” a colloquial term used to describe feeling unwell or subpar. The humor arises from the blending of these two interpretations. Initially, the listener might expect a more conventional reason for someone (or something) visiting a doctor.
