Question: Cracking bones!?
When cracking your fingers, knuckles, neck, back, etc!. Is this bad for you!? I've heard mixed responses to this question, so I have no idea if all that is bad for yourself!. And can you get arthritis from it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
when you crack your bones you are forcing the bone joints to take a different position then what they are designed to do!. You cause them to rub to-gether and wear each other out and eventually the joint is gone and you need a replacement joint!. Trust me, plastic joints don't work as well as the natural bone joint and arthritis does set into the bending of the joint and you never get rid of arthritis!. for your info-arthritis is painful and causes paralization and deformation of the bone joint!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ok in reference to answer #1-Rheumatoid arthritis is not from cracking your knuckles and effects the whole body!.
I don't know if cracking your knuckles can cause arthritis in your hands, if heard yes and no!.
Maybe look on WEB MD
But it DOES wear down the cartilage in the joint and that can't be good!.
I used to crack my knuckles all the time as a teen, and now I'm 34, and so far so good!.
My knuckles are a little big (makes it hard to buy rings), but I can't say cracking my knuckles caused that, it could be genetic, my grandmother had large knuckles!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
