There are now times after prolonged rubbing around the medial ankle that my foot goes completely numb and I can not move it for a solid 5 minutes. It completely freezes on me.
I absolutely love getting my ankle rubbed. It is the most satisfying feeling i have felt, however people are never keen to help out. The tendon moves around her the pressure of the finger, even if it is very light pressure, and it grosses a lot of people out.
Anyone else enjoy the rubbing sensation?

The chiro really didnt know much about it.
he did some poping and moving of his own and taped my ankle a few times.
it didn't help. The cracking is still as stronge as ever.
I have done some "research" online and found that the sensation on the side of my ankle may be Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome.
My ankle is starting to feel quite weak and im beggining to get worried! Even though I know I should stop cracking it, I can't.
Ive delt with an addiction in high school, which I can honestly say was easier to kick than this.

I definitely have fantasies about cracking my ankle while having someone rub and hold it.
thats my favorite activity

I am going to the chiropractor tomorrow, as i was told they are specialist on this problem. Im excited to hear what they have to say and what they are going to suggest.
surgury or therapy-typed treatment

yea while i am snapping my ankle, a tendon (i think?) and a vein become very hard and tender. I can rub and push them around and it increases the satisfaction.
its definitely an OCD thing.
I hate it. i even considered going a psychologist about it, but i feel like they won't understand.
until then, ill keep on snapping away. its a love/hate relationship

i just don't know if i can make it to a month…
i have tried but it's virtually impossible. the thing is no matter what- it will crack on me, always reminding me of the sensation. It cracks when i drive, use stairs, stand up, ect... its inevitable.
I'm hopeless. Ill just be an ankle addict for ever.
does anyone else like the sensation of rubbing their cracking location? is it very tender and sensitive?

my parents both say it is a nervous habit, and the only way to stop is to have self control.
unfortunately that doesn't work.
even when i say i want to stop, it always haunts me because when i walk up stairs, drive, or even more my ankle it snaps.
It is definitely inflamed around the cracking site, yes.

my ex girlfriend use to love my ankle. she would hold it while i cracked it ( I KNOW it sounds so weird right) but it was the biggest turn on. I love it when other people touch it

I cant go 5 minutes without snapping my ankle. I am still in high school and i literally feel bad for the people sitting around me in my classes. I prop it up on my knee and go at it for many many minutes (5-30mins at a time) It is so loud and defined.
I also like to rub my ankle while it cracks. I have very sensitive material/tissue surrounding the spanning sight and it feels absolutely amazing when it cracks. I cant stop. it is an addiction.
my parents are doctors, and i have asked numerous times for them to do something about this.
sometimes after long binges of cracking out, I consider wearing a cast or going to a councilor.
is there anyone else out there this extreme?!!?
