Is it harmful to crack your knuckles?

thetis74 @thetis74 (1525) 19 Aug 11

vkatrix Hi thetis :) From what I know by reading, cracking knuckles is not harmful. Like you said, bubbles in the fluid, upon bursting, cause the popping sound. These bubbles in the fluid can actually cause pain in the joint and a cramp-like pain in the adjoining...

Jane @jaiho2009 (39141) • Philippines 19 Aug 11

vkatrix Hi jaiho :) I usually take criticism as a self-development process, instilling its essence into my contemplation and mulling over it all. This would be if I can see the sincerity and truthfulness in the criticism. You are right there- sometimes a stranger...
