How did you go about getting diagnosed with hyper-mobile joints?
did you mention it to your doctor, or did they just say it to you?

We have a lot in common!

Basically I got punched in the neck about 14 years old, and since then I have had neck problems.

I have been to a few doctors who have basically said theres nothing they can do, because I'm not really in any pain, its just the clicking.
I've been to a chiropractor who also told me about posture, but that doesnt seem to help much. The chiropractor himself was pretty useless and very expensive as well!

Write back 😎

hi, you still around?

interesting about the OCD, hope someone can help - welcome

You can "learn" how to crack your back?!

2 years late, but welcome!

when did you start being able to crack your neck?

can you crack your back/neck?

cool story!

welcome

Probz did 😛 :lol:

I forgot about the site :oops: and then remembered 😎 I was to busy clicking/cracking/popping :roll:

Snap crackle and pop

nice to meet you.
Ive only been cracking for three years now.
the problem is that I was trying to get by with out eating beef or fish.
I still have too many moral issues with eating animals
so I am currently trying to limit these foods in my diet.
anyway Im pretty new to cracking, but I know that cracking
helped me to understand the things that are critical for
health. The site is a really good idea and will be very effective if it
does what it is designed to do.

If you have any questions i would be happy to help.

perhaps you might be interested in the smoking pot and cracking thread.

If you have any nutritional information, bogus or real I'll probably find it interesting.
I'm dumb enough to be a guinea pig for a lot of this stuff.
no chemicals that have more then 15 letters in their name.
and I don't like the ones that have hyphens and or numbers.

anyway if you got any ideas thats cool.

Ill have a headache when I wake up sometimes but then I will crack my neck and it will go away

no - no pain at all. it just seems natural. now i do it by leaning against the sofa and lifting myself up. i have to say i get no pain from any joint cracking at all

Welcome to Jointcrackers, reena! I'm poppoppop, 15 years old, and have been cracking for ten years.

Well I have this problem with many of my joints..mostly caused from osteoarthritis and hypermobility. been through the mill on this and have gone through the thorough tests etc to find solutions to what is going on. Nice to see a site that people can go to. Up til now I have been going through the doctors and therapists.

how do i delete my account on this?!

I am new here.. hey everyone.. in addition to all the cracks listed above (most of them anyway ) My favorite is this.. I lay on my back and position my legs almost indian style.. bottoms of my feet together.. like butterfly…. after a few seconds to a minute the weight of my leg cracks the joint near my groin.. it just sort of over powers it and it falls a tiny bit while cracking LOUD.. when cracking my knuckles.. i get between 24 and 36 cracks.. 36 ( being the record) between my ten fingers.. when I lay down flat on my back i crack all the way up my spine just from laying down.. GLAD TO FIND YOU ALL

@MidgetWithAHat:

wow, i'm not alone!

this is the reason i came on this too… most of my joints crack - most of them involuntarily! - but my sternum has recently started cracking.. and it's a little painful afterwards. weird.

i'm sure it's not entirely normal... hah.

does your neck crack involuntarily? thats what sometimes annoys me lol
