ya im absolutely addicted to it, some doctors (my uncle) say its just air, others (my ex's mom) say its bad for you.. my knuckles, i try to crack them every 5 min or so, and my fingers, what have you..

been doing it for a long time though, and now the joint before my fingertips (yknow, not the knuckles but the second one you use for knocking on doors)

all my fingers, those joints are really big and gross, and crooked. my fingers aren't even straight when i stretch my hands straight, and im only 18!

sheeeeeeeeeeeeit.. it cant be good for you.
so if you CAN, sTOP!

too late for me

I sprained my ankle when i was 8 years old and now it cracks every time I move it. is that bad? it doesn't hurt or anything but it's loud and embarassing during sex.

someone make me a sig, i'm too lazy

my pretty hands look shitty cause ive been popping my knuckles forever.
theyre thicker in the middle and look gross

health wise i dont know if its bad

i also thought this was going to be bout weed

i suggest you stretch more often

After I had ankle surgery a few years back, for months I would crack the ankel constantly. What happened was there would be so much tension I coudnt move it at all. I'd have to hobble to a chair and use my hands Now its fine though.

how do you do when you pop your dick? up, down, sideways? gimme instructions

I did it for years, I mean since grade 3, which is when I learned to do it, until now. And I mean I did it all the time, I used to do it so often that there would usually three times when I try to crack them but cant in between cracking sessions.

I think I've stopped now. I'm not sure really, because I used to do it so automatically, but I'm going to try to catch myself and see if I still do.

Originally posted by b i n k u n i'd suggets you guys limit the amount of times you guys crack ur knuckles, necks, etc...reason? not only does it let air in which is a cause for arthritis, but each time you crack it, it shifts the joints and bones out of position. not as much so in your knuckles and arm joints...BUT in the neck and back, it can shift and rotate your vertebrae and eventually your spinal cord will be twisted out of shape. the result? you'll wake up one day and you won't be able to move your neck or back. this happened to a track coach of mine who is now a chiropractor/sports education speaker to warn young adults about this. hehe, didn't mean to put a damper on your fun (i used to crack pretty much everything too) but it's a warning worth following.

I dont know. I can crack my back easily, just by sitting up/standing and arching it forward. I can crack my neck by tilting it side to side now too, but it only works sometimes.

I've been told this isn't a problem and that it's pretty much harmless.

i carck all the time. my chiropractor used to get real upset with me over that. lately it's been my knee and ankles the most. actually i think i need an adjustment but i dont have a chiropractor in california. there is one on my block but i feel weird picking a new chiropractor cause bad ones can really fuck you up.

i crack my neck so much my bf has taken to calling me "crackhead".

Cracking knuckles has NEVER been associated with causing arthritis.
This concept is as wrong as saying weight lifting makes you short, or
playing basketball makes you tall.

The "popping" of the knuckles results from forcing joint fluid to
very rapidly pass from one side of the joint to the other, where the
"sides" are partitioned off by the main bones of the joint. Let me
rephrase that: a joint is an area where two or more separate and distinct
bones meet. The joint fluid provides a cushioning between the joints
so that they don't grate into each other. Cracking your knuckles forces
the joint fluid from one part of the joint to another, and the popping
sound is just the result of the high pressured rushing of fluid.

Rheumatoid arthritis is characterized by the loss of joint fluid from the
joint, but it results from damage to the linings of the joint itself.
It's tempting to claim that the high pressure flushing of fluid during
a knuckle "crack" can cause damage to the lining, but there simply is no
evidence to that effect. It was probably made up by some very sensitive
individuals who hate the "pop".
