My daughter cracks much more than her knuckles. She cracks her arms, legs hands etc

Is It Normal?

  • Popping your neck is not good however, because it loosens your ligaments too much. I learned this the hard way when I popped my neck and sprained it.

  • Cracking joints is actually good for the joints. It pops the air bubbles which is what makes the noise and streches the ligaments like you would a muscles. And being able to pop more than just your knuckles is normal.

  • I can crack almost everything I can think of, but you should make her stop it right away, it's a real bad habit.

  • Probably normal for an OCD person. Annoying as he'll though!

  • I started with my fingers when I was young. It then led to my back and neck. That's about it. Sometimes my hips pop if I stretch them, or knees crack if I squat for an extended period of time then stand up, but nothing out of the ordinary. She may grow out of it.
