RadishTM Veteran Posted January 3, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 3, 2004 It is known that knuckle cracking causes mild arthritis but it's not proven, I do it all the time without any probs. Radish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riz360 Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 its not as bad as some people make it out to be, knuckle cracking is when u burst nitrogen bubbles in your joints so your not scraping the bones together or whatever and i sont know where to get teh sounds have u googled it?

DeathLace Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 It is known that knuckle cracking causes mild arthritis but it's not proven, I do it all the time without any probs.Radish? this isn't true... my aunt is a physiotherapist and I asked her... she said knuckle cracking doesn't do anything except release air between your knuckles... that's all.

Hum Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 :rolleyes: hmmm ... nitrous oxide helps with erections, so maybe knuckle cracking releases it for use in other areas. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NetGX Posted January 3, 2004 Share Posted January 3, 2004 It was on a medical site somwhere, that it has been proven to be just an old wives tail and that it does not cause arthritis. It's just small pockets of bubble and when compressed they, well pop to make the crach sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
