Be Still Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Anybody else crackly? All of my joints crack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bttrflyamby1981 Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 LOL,My whole body cracks! It drives my husband crazy.It's mostly when I haven't done alot of movement like when I wake up or watch a whole movie without getting up.My legs hurt when I don't move them ALL the time, so I don't sit still very often. In the mornings you could put milk on me and have me for breakfast.Amber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clairefmartin Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 I am constantly cracking! If I sit still at all, when I finally move, I am crack-a-licious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellen Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 YES- when I walk down the hall I crackle- my ankles are so loud, there is no way I can sneak up on anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labas_2u@shaw.ca Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 I crack and pop if I have been still for any amount of time...When I get up I usually look behind me to make sure everything came with me and I didn't leave anythingbehind......

Guest CyberPixie Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Me too, not just clicks, but great big sickening clunks. It's the EDS for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukkychrm42 Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Same here, though some joints more than others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richland acres Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 I am always crackeling too. I also have sore joints my knees and elbows are the worst. Not sure what is up... maybe some day some thing will show up. I also have extreeme pain in these joints too, along with weakness. Love the humor in these posts,no sneeking up on any one, ha. So true!Brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 This is a problem I don't have--except a little in my knees. I think this might be an EDS symptom. Katherine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgan617 Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 I tend to crackle a lot in my large joints. I make my hubs and son crack my back on purpose. It feels out all the time and it really helps when they do it. My ankles drive me crazy if I don't pop them. morgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lulu Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 my husband sings the little jingle from Rice Krispies to me, "Snap! Crackle! Pop!.... Lulu stretching!" or ".....Lulu walking!" or "....Lulu moving!" It's to the point that if I don't crack knees, hips, ankles, wrists, shoulders, and neck--oh, big time on the neck---I hurt. I've just always been like this.....Wait, this isn't something else I need to worry about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmpower Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Cute thread. One ankle cracks when I walk uphill and the other when I walk downhill -- weird.I have read a bunch of theories on cracking joints:Joints are too dryManganese is lowLigaments too longLigaments too shortScar tissueBones "out"Muscles imbalanced, causing shifts in capsular fluid when they rearrange on movementSubclinical or clinical inflammationRough places in bones that soft tissue is moving overNone of the aboveSome of the aboveAll of the above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singledadof3girls Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 I know the bones in my neck and shoulders crack alot, but not in my legs, the odd thing is since I have taken up bowling again, my right shoulder does not crack anymore. For me, I dont get any pain, well yet anyway, just sounds painfull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellen Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Whenever I get an adjustment from the chiropractor my back makes a big "crack" sound, and if it doesnt crack, he'll do the adjustment again until it gives a crack. The same with my neck-does being "crackly" have something to do with dysautonomia? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
