Junior Jointcracker Joined: Sep 17, 2008 Posts: 3 About 8 days ago i woke up with horrible pain in my shoulder and right arm just below my shoulder. because warnth would relieve the pain somewhat everyone says its a pulled tendon. The right side of my neck is so stiff its unbearable, self cracking does nothing to help. There is a valley you could lay your arm in at the base of my neck and it sounds like its filled with rice crispies. the shoulder muscle is stiff and hurts steady all the time and the muscle in my arm on the outside of the arm just below my shoulder hurts so bad it bring tears to my eyes and makes me sick. i got laid of and lost my insurance 12/24 and my new insurance wont kick in for another 30 days. thank god i have a stockpile of ibuprophen. i'm just wondering if anyone has ever had a simular experiance and can give me some advice on how to deal with this. im positive its all related to my neck somehow.

Back to top MonkeysUncleByMarriage Posted: Sat Mar 21, 2009 9:34 am    Post subject: Junior Jointcracker Joined: Mar 13, 2009 Posts: 8 It could be something as simple as a stiff neck, but I would definitely go to a doctor and see what they say. Shoulder stiffness and pain could be a sign of a bad gallbladder.

Back to top wisecracker Posted: Tue Mar 24, 2009 12:19 pm    Post subject: are there any doctors on here? Junior Jointcracker Joined: Mar 23, 2009 Posts: 3 I started when I was 11 and I am 37 now, I have learned to read my body and listen to it, I have a theory on why us crackers crack our joints, but before I give it away, yes a little selfish I am, I am wondering where one would go to test this theory more thorougly, I of course have tested it on my self for years before I finally clues in! Then I consiously tested my theory and I believe I am correct, if I am right I believe I have also found one of the causes for sleeplessness, not insomnia. Someone lead me in the right direction, please Back to top MasterCracker Posted: Tue Mar 24, 2009 11:48 pm    Post subject: Elite Jointcracker Joined: Feb 16, 2008 Posts: 319 Location: Cali hhhmmmm i love to slleep if that helps Back to top wisecracker Posted: Wed Mar 25, 2009 12:36 am    Post subject: Junior Jointcracker Joined: Mar 23, 2009 Posts: 3 no, I'm saying that my theory will also help with sleeplessness, not that sleeping helps with not cracking, heck I even wake up in the middle of the night to get a couple goods cracks in Back to top dj100 Posted: Thu Mar 26, 2009 12:24 am    Post subject: Supreme Jointcracker Joined: Jun 26, 2008 Posts: 613 cracking used to wake me up Back to top akillian Posted: Thu Apr 02, 2009 1:27 pm    Post subject: all better Junior Jointcracker Joined: Sep 17, 2008 Posts: 3 the bone dr. said it was all pinched nerves. he gave me a cracken 3 times a week, along with the rolly table and the tingly thing. the first crack made my thumb and forefinger go numb for about 3 weeks but now everything is fine. i hate to think of what horrors a medical dr. would have put me through. oh and the word was warmth, smarty thanks to everyone for trying to help.
