Joint cracking has been linked to Tourette's syndrome by Steviemfc:

Quote:

Like you I had never heard of joint cracking being linked with TS either, however the representative of Tourettes Scotland was saying at the recent OCDUK conference in Stirling that cracking joints is a really common symptom for lots of TS sufferers.

Post here if you have more conclusive evidence on this.

Never ever heard of this before.

I don't really see how it is linked either - maybe if it is something to do with in the brain? Confused

Possibly, maybe people feel a "need" to do it?

People have that feeling without even having tourettes but deciding to start cracking.

OCD is an anxiety disorder, and joint-cracking seems to relieve physiological tension. I'm a bit obsessive, also. Hence, the theory wins my seal of plausibility approval.
