Do you crack your knuckles alot?

[Theguywithhat]

Yes I do actually! Question: can cracking your knuckles really lead to arthritis (or however you spell it) later on in life??

Question: Do you read the former posts before you post your own? =P
No. In this thread, people have deconfirmed it. Some do not believe in this. And non has confirmed it[/quote]

Sorry, no I didn't.
But thanks for answering the question anyway!

I crack my knuckles a lot nowadays. Mostly as a tick when I get nervous.
Also, when I'm at Air cadets, and our Warrent stands us at Easy, but tells us not to talk (basically letting us move around, but to stay in position) I always wait until everybody has stopped moving about, and then I crack my knuckles as loudly as possible.


I also crack my elbows, just 'cause I can

Cracking my elbows always feels good. Yay for elbow crackers!

 

[Lord Beautiful]

Quite a bit, I do.

When I'm stressed out I crack my knuckles and my neck a lot.

 

[xxcloud417xx]

Used to do it a lot more than now. Now though it seems I crack my kneck constantly...

 

[Eclectic Dreck]

No, but I tend to pop my kneck alot because I spend a lot of my day looking at a book or whatnot and it tends to hurt.

I've cracked my knuckles ever since I started playing guitar.

Same here, except I play bass. Every once in a while when I can't make the stretch in frets, I crack whichever knucles are involved, and I actually find it easier.

Maybe that's just me.

 

[paladinkratos]

i can crack my knuckles, neck, and spine.
but i found out that the neck cracking is actually because part of my spine in out of allignment with the rest.
I can also crack my middle finger at will.

 

[sky14kemea]

no, but i can make my wrists click...
me'thinks its early signs of arthritis, ah well

my cousin can crack his knuckles really well, and his neck >_< its not fair

 

[CompanionCube]

Yes, everytime I see/read/hear someone crack their neck I have too.

 

[c0ld3r]

Knuckles, neck, back, wrists, ankles. All day every day.

 

[BigCat91]

yeah i don't know why it just kinda feels good to me

 

[Hman121]

yes, and I also crack other people's necks, backs, and knuckles for them.

 

[Lord Kofun]

Neck, back, knuckles, at least three times per day. My joints are horrible as it is.. I know I'm accelerating my impending arthritis every time, but it just feels so good at the time.. xD

Not at all. I find the exact same thing. It also loosens up my ring and pinky fingers and makes it a lot easier to accurately and quickly hit those tiny 13+ frets.

 

[Gunn01]
