do you crack your neck?
 

i crack my neck like a motherfucker and i'm scared it's going to damage me in the longrun... :helpme

i do it sometimes

i try to take it easy though but i'll probably be all fucked up down the road

no but my chiropractor does for a large fee
:error

I do on a regular basis. I got a pinched nerve a couple years ago. So painful.
Stop doing it. I wish I could.

i wish i could. i do it all day long without noticing...cccrrrraccckkkckkkk! lol...

if I dont crack my neck for a few hours, I get the biggest headache and my neck becomes so fucking stiff that I can't even turn around to look at someone...

I just did it right now... feels sooooooo goood

it does feel good. it also feels good when i crack my finger joints, wrists, elbows shoulder, neck, back, hip, knee, ankle, toes, jaw...

but it does not feel good to crack a skull plate.

cracking the jaw is the best!

yea i think i fucked up my jaw from eating out my girlfriend so much. it cracks hella bad every time i yawn...

That's a lotta poppin. I thought doing my fingers, neck, back, knees and ankles was excessive.

Guilty, I do too.

I love doing it always. :)

I once did it in front of my girlfriend with a slight trick I've learned back then in highschool. Damn, it really scared the hell out of her.

Its perfectly healthy. All medical advice shows that cracking nuckles, joints etc doenst cause any long term health effects...see disclaimer below

The old wives tale that you will get arthritis is just bullshit.

so crack away!

FROM WEB MD:
3: Cracking your knuckles will cause arthritis in later life.


ANSWER: False. Depending on your point of view, knuckle-popping sounds disgusting or cool. There is no evidence that cracking your knuckles inflames the joints and leads to arthritis. The cracking causes the bones to pull apart, forming a gas bubble and breaking the adhesive seal in the joint. Crack! About a quarter of the people in the U.S. crack their knuckles and might begin to lose their grip a little. Constant cracking can weaken the fingers.

well great, you won't get arthritis but you'll lose your grip and have weak fingers? lol...

no cracks at all

not even an ass-crack?

Just means you won't be able to masturbate at 80... :Oh crap

well by then i hope to have a trophy wife who can do it for me :)

<weak fingers crossed> :upsidedow

I crack my fingers, back, and neck all too often. Once every couple hours at least. My neck now feels like it always needs to be cracked 24/7. Which is morre annoying than anything I can imagine. Back is the same way alot, and recently I had little spasms (dunno what else to call em) where a sharp pain suddenly hits my spine / lower back. It's so bad I freeze up and can't move. Lasts for about 2-5 seconds.

I was able to quit smoking... But I can't stop cracking shit. :helpme

I get the headaches alot too. :(

hahahaha I'm always scared when a friend does it

I do it occassionally yeh, it frees my neck somehow. My therapist said it won't hurt you if you do it occassionally, if it's a daily habit it will be unhealthy though. Visit a chiropractor sometime, maybe he can give some solid advice.

I dont crack my neck.

I think it's fine and do it all the time.

I mean chiropractor charges bank to do it, why give him all the goods when you can do it yourself.

i try to and it never works, so i have a chiropractor do it

I do it sometimes when I'm really tired

hehehe me too! But I do feel good after doing it!
:321GFY

I try, but there aint no crack!

never did that , what the fuck ?!

I started cracking joints and shit 10 years ago or so and wish i never started it, You become dependant on it, chiropractors that say its ok to crack it wont cause damage i think are full of shit, the way my neck and back feels its worse because i have to depend on popping it or im in pain, i was never like that before cracking..

Nope don't crack my neck but just about everything else ... back, fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, hips, knees, ankles, and even my toes. I think it stems from being a gymnast for so many years.

yes 'cause if I don't, it hurts like a mofo. Same with knees, elbows, wrists, and fingers.

Wow I used to do it all the time, both ways but until I saw your post hadnt done it in years. Just did and dammmmmmm that felt good,

Word of warning, I have had dissections in my arteries in my neck and the doctors said it can occur from chiropractors, so I assume it's even more likely if you do it yourself...

So did anyone else have the urge to crack their neck when they opened this thread?

I haven't done it in a very long time

Exactly the same. If I don't then I get mad headaches from compression.
.

LOL. I just did :D
.

i just roll my head around and it will crack on its own. i don't do any special chiro moves though.

I have to crack mine to relieve the pressure.
I do have RA and it hurts to crack some of my joints most of the time but when I can it feels so good after.

Wonder how many ppl require hospitalization after reading this thread :helpme

But fuck, I am still doing it on regular basis.. It is sick, but how enjoyable :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

lol at all the responses...i crack my neck so much it feels like my damn vertebrae are disconnected...

One of my good friends is a chiropractor. I rarely go but if anything needed cracking I would rather see a pro.

hell I love cracking my neck, back, jar, elbows, and knuckles. I find it stress-relieviing.
