Excellent, I hope you are right. Thanks for your reply.

One more question - how long have you been cracking for? Is it something that stays with you for a lifetime?

Hey guys,

So this is kind of an introduction but mainly I have a question for you all.

I am a 26 year old guy and I have always cracked a little bit when I stretch but nothing I would consider out of the ordinary - until about 6 months ago.

About 6 months ago I noticed I kept cracking my fingers and my neck and I did not feel comfortable unless I did it on a regular basis. Over the next couple of months the need to crack spread to my back and wrists and about a month ago I have started cracking my feet and ankles.

I dont think the need to crack my fingers has been getting worse - but that could be because I am distracted by my neck, but I am worried more and more of my joints are starting to need to crack.

I have been to several doctors but they do not take me seriously and tests for arthritis have been negative.

Apologies if this question has been asked before - but have you found your cracking has got noticeably worse/better over time?
