Cracking Knuckles | Signs and Symptoms | Video | Veria Living

Someone told me if you crack your knuckles you get arthritis.

[JayLookie]

I love cracking my knuckles and my toes. I just love the way it feels and the way it sounds. I've been cracking my fingers and toes for so many years now that it became a hobby of mine.

[lolmeadia]

take that mother!



[DreaVonJazz]

I actually have a question, i actually have some scoliosis and one hip is higher then the other. I went to a chiropractor, the best recommended in my town that i live in to help me out and adjust and reinline me. I stopped going ( after about a year) because i found it made it worse. NOW all i have to do is just straight out and my spin cracks like crazy even just turning over moving in bed at night my neck and back crack like crazy and my hips too! I dunno if this is normal? It really hurts too

[Nevecus]

@DreaVonJazz

If it hurts - it's bad. If you find it became worse after treatment; you've obviously had an incompetent chiropractor. If he's there to adjust your spine for the better and makes it worse; that can't possibly have been the correct procedure, no?

Perhaps you should seek a better one outside of town. If you still have these issues.

[Chett07]

I can crack both of my thumbs repeatedly over and over until I get bored, after breaking both of them a few years ago. It sounds the same as cracking the rest of my fingers, but like I said I can do it repeatedly and don't have to wait the 15 seconds or however long like the rest of my joints, any explanation as to why? It's nothing serious, just curious after seeing this!

[HaloReachRandomness]

is it okay to crack your back too? because I crack my back all the time and my back is also a little curved because I usually slightly bend over when Im playing games like on the computer and stuff and when Im walking I kind of have a hunch back, does the cracking my back help?

[TomsterTN]

hello fingers what do you say about this video O_O WTF...........

[Drew27Berna11]

i cracked my knukles while watching this

[GeorgiaAppleby]

i was told that if i crack my fingers or knuckles i would get arthritis .. :S is that true?

[manhidnatao]

what... i thought nitrogen was the gAS Tht makes the bubble-popping sound ? O.O

[DanteWolfwood]

So cracking your knuckles can actually be used to diagnose if you have joint disease(s).

Cracking your knuckles/joints should be promoted then!?!? wtf health class???

[airsoftman322]

why can i crack my toe up to 400 times in arow?

[FunkyClanWar]

This is fake! I could crack my fingers anytime I want, and I don't have to wait freaking 15 mins before I can crack it again. 

[thats5]

@FunkyClanWar Another type of cracking your fingers :)

[Pgnspire]

sometimes I can bend my finger back a little and pull it out to crack it and it works and just pulling or twisting it doesn't.... what the crap?

[CrazyChocolateCake]

I dont think I'll ever pop my knuckled ever again.... :s

[psymon2005]

I crack my wrists and ankles all the time. The thing is, it can't be due to this gas in the sack or whatever, because i can do it continuously. If i put my elbow on a table or desk, it really amplifies the sound. What could be making this noise?

[legoboy318]

when i crack my right middle finger it doesent hurt but when i crack left middle finger it does plz help

[geradino123456789]

[DarkLuigi4321]

[richardparker30]

Why does my left ankle constantly crack/click? I am able to constantly do this without any period of time. Does this not work in the same way as knuckles?

[qwertyian1]

[mitch1239127]

[MrDrakulaS]

Some fingers of mine crack from it self, is that bad? :O

[rocker1chic]

[Songspoint]

@rocker1chic I crack all my fingers by pulling them not twisting and they make a loud poping sound when i pull my bones apart. i do it with my pinkie sometimes too lol

[en197455]

[twerd4ever10]

Awesome.

HEEELLLLPPPPP!!!

[Tedsta101]

Howcome I can crack my toes and wait 2 seconds and crack them again?

[TNxox7]

i crack my fingers, toes, back, knees, neck, and ankle 0.0

[Sp17f1r3]

I like cracking my knuckles a lot, and i do it extremely often, sometimes my fingers just feel stiff if i dont do it, as if something is constricting their movement and when i crack them they go back to normal. Lately though i have started experiencing some pain in my right pinkie, same sort of pain i get when i put my leg that i've broken 3 times in cold water. Should i be worried ?

[veriawellness]

@Sp17f1r3 It is very hard to give a proper diagnosis over the internet. If you are worried you should seek professional medical opinion. We hope it is nothing serious...

[chancebadger]

@Sp17f1r3 That movement constriction is exactly why you should not habitually crack your knuckles. I would advise you to stop cracking them unless absolutely necessary.

[DrRicktofen]

@KidzHumor I like pie :(

[MrJasonrolfe]

right all i want to know is. I cracked my knuckles most of the time kind of habit. for the last 10 years ish and i am only 16 so i wondered is there any permenent damage

[veriawellness]

@MrJasonrolfe Just cracking the knuckles on its own shouldnt cause any problems. But if you have problems with your joints, or if they ever become painful and swollen, you should go and see a doctor as you might have complications

[chancebadger]

@MrJasonrolfe I disagree with veriawellness. Cracking your knuckles and other joints will lead to a dependency and can exacerbate joint hypermobility and muscle tension. Over time, you will have to crack your joints just to return to normal range of motion. I would advice against quotidian and habitual cracking and tell you to only crack when absolutely necessary. -Medical Student

[robotpanda77]

@chancebadger We all die eventually. Stop being such a fucking buzzkill asshole. Why can't science ever come out and say "hey sex with strippers cures disease" it always has to be some depressing shit. Fuck off.

[robotpanda77]

@chancebadger Did I not make myself clear enough the first time you fucking loser? The world is a better off place without you. There is no documented proof for your claims. Go die of AIDS and do the world a favor.

[chancebadger]

@robotpanda77 No you didn't make yourself clear because you write tangentially. You are disrespectful and it will come back to haunt you son. Here's evidence: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/­PMC1004074/?tool=pmcentrez

[seanNnoa]

........So it's okay....

[Yskaterbo]

thumbs up if you were cracking your knuckles during this video!

[mwain6187]

Isn't it nitrogen gas that is released not carbon dioxide?

[ELLOWNSU15]

I used to crack my knuckles a fair few times a day for about 1 and half years then I stopped. Then after about 6-8 months without cracking them I have a habit of cracking them again and I wish I would stop.

[nadiasophienab]

dont ur knuckles get like really big if you crack them?

[DCisMINE]

so its that simple.....there's nothing wrong with it?

[veriawellness]

@DCisMINE It doesn't damage your health, as long as you don't have any joint diseases. Do you crack your knuckles as a habit?

[DCisMINE]

@veriawellness i wouldnt say it is a habit, not like it is for others. I have been doing it for a long long time though.

[veriawellness]

@DCisMINE Hope this video helped you understand a little better how our body works. :)

[BlackWaterAgent]

I crack my fingers all day everyday I don't give a FUCK.

[janyaoha83]

@BlackWaterAgent Brother is a strong urge when you can't hold it you crack it you feel relief after but than after a while you crack it again its like a habit that cannot be stop an addiction. Is there a way to solve this problem really?

[chancebadger]

@BlackWaterAgent You will start to give a F*** later when you have to crack them to even to return to normal range of motion like an old granny getting out of bed... and then I will sympathize with you.

[turbotonic27]

@BlackWaterAgent my neck and back too

[idk459]

@BlackWaterAgent hell yea.wassuphaters

[lakersfin3st]

@bjoker2421 I know right me too

[lakersfin3st]

This helped out I always wondered what happened when i cracked my knuckles

[LegalAlien100]

Another observation. In Europe we view joint cracking as being terribly arrogant and rude. Yanks are utterly addicted to it (more do it than do not). Why is it viewed as being socially acceptable? Because it is, totally F**KING ANNOYING!!!

[FootbalFutbolS0ccer]

@LegalAlien100 lol.. yea im american and i gots say i crack knucles all the time.. but im gona stop

[LegalAlien100]

Joint cracking makes me want to physically puke when I hear it because I suffered multiple fractures when I was a child and it brings back awful memories. I want to know exactly what the point of all this is because all the sound does in inflict utter misery to my ears as well as to my well being?

[marcoarturorosillo10]

my ring finger hurts when i bend it now because i crack it alot

how can i fix it?

[LegalAlien100]

@marcoarturorosillo10 Umm...Stop cracking it.

[xblindside7290]

=\ see, i can crack my toes. well, toe. my middle toe on my right foot over and over and over again. it makes the same sound as if im cracking my fingers. but when i crack my fingers, like stated in this video, i cant crack them again for a while. but my toe, i can do it over and over again. and i find myself doing it all the time. it doesnt hurt.

idk what the heck it is, but it makes my dad and my girlfriend cringe because they hate the cracking sound and hate that i can do it over and over.

[EvilMonkey350]

thanks for finally clearing this up!

[bjoker2421]

This video makes me whant to crack even more!!!!

[Roachible]

If i spin my foot, it cracks automaticly :D

[MrINFAMOUS707]

i can squeeze my hand and they crack right away i could keep on doin it

[The2Star2TheRight]

i cant crack my fingers by pulling cause im scared im gunna pull them outta their "sockets" haha

[TheCrampz]

[JaredProduction666]
