I am not sure where to post, so I will start here.

I have cracked the knuckles in my fingers (the pointer, middle, ring), the second one from the tip going down.

I started this when I was young. But it was not a habit. Just something I did once in a while.

Then a few years ago and especially this year, I have felt a need to crack them every few minutes. Not all of them crack all of the time.

But what really concerns me, is that at the same time that my knuckles became more needy, I have a numbness in my finger tips. It is like over half the sense of touch is gone. And I do not think that one thing caused the other. But I think they are both due to some underlying cause.

The only thing that I do alot is type on a computer keyboard. I have been trying to get a keyboard which has less keypress (more like a laptop but not quite).

So, I would like to know if anyone here also has the numbness of finger tips connected with an increase need for finger cracking.
