Ribs
-
@hp:
I think you're wrong, there are no joints in the ribs, neither synovial fluid . That sounds come from your middle al low spine
Hmm, I just took a quick sweep on Google and found this:
In general the chest should be pushed down 11/2-2 inches. Sometimes you may hear a cracking sound. Do not be alarmed. The sound is caused by cartilage or ribs cracking. Even if this occurs the damage is not serious. The risk of delaying CPR or not doing CPR is far greater than the risk of a broken rib.
The other references I found to cracking ribs refered to broken ribs due to accidents. :roll:

At times, my sternum cracks…it usually happens when my weight changes a bit [~2 lbs, either up or down]…
-
I def can't do this and wouldn't want to.
I think you would do some unwanted damage so they are best left alone.

My sternum has cracked a few times. It's quiet, but it feels strange. I don't like it even though it's not painful.

That sounds a pretty dangerous thing to do. And just by breathing you can crack something? You must be exerting some force by maybe pushing out or something.

No, my back cracks when I breath sometimes too. I'm only breathing as I normally do, it's not like I'm trying to breath hard enough to do it lol. It does feel good, too.

Which means you are putting your back under strain then?

No, that's where my subluxation is.
