Desire to pop



  • Do you get this more at certain times of the day?

    I get it in the morning for my neck, and for my toes basically whenever i take off my shoes or sometimes just randomly…



  • Yes - morning.



  • what about night? when i sort of winding down after a long day, my joints start getting worse and although the desire to crack isn't as much as in the morning, it is still there 😞



  • Not really as different joints, different refractory periods and i am very tired.



  • yeah i guess lifestyle like how much exercise you do affects it…



  • I have it in my neck, back, carpals and in my toes. i think it is a desire or maybe addiction.

    I think it just depends on the severity of how much cartelidge may have deminished and or air has build up in the joint (the more airr the louder the pressure release)



  • I have the desire to crack/pop my knuckles, toes, back, shoulders, neck, ankles, wrists etc almost all the time.Its just something I look forward to. Its kind of scary…. like i love it. im obsessed. It makes me feel SO much better. The sound, the feeling. is so comforting because I know its like the one thing I'll always be able to do like an expert. And you know how once you crack it all out you ussually have to wait a while to crack again? well i dread waiting. i get sooooo eager to just crack crack crack and its the most satisfying feeling in the world to me. Im a completely normal person despite my cracking addiction. I must sound crazy but i'm just being honest. cracking joints is one of my favorite hobbies, passions, feelings everr. do any of you feel this strong about it?

    If you can helpdont do it so much because I was just like you. My joints (ie shoulder, knee, back and neck would sound like low octave version of someone pulling a chicken or turkey wing apart at the joint you get a sharp warm feeling followed by a cool sensation sometimes. When sometimes the crack/pop feeling would hit you so hard it you are temp stopped in your track fr a few second because you think it feels so good but all in all your hurting your body



  • When I wake up I feel pretty stif and I need to crack to feel like I'm not a plank of wood. If I sit in the same position for a long time, like at the computer, I need to crack my neck/ back. My fingers I crack all the time.



  • im super stiff in the mornings, but pretty much I ache all day long. constant pain and constant feeling of needing to crack my entire body like a dang glow stick!!! :x

    I definitely share some feeling on this one, but I dont think I enjoy it as much as it sounds like you do. Im in pain, and the time inbetween cracks really isnt all that long. im always so busy i dont even think about it. they all just go "crack crack crackkkkkkk!" when i was a kid at school, i used to feel proud that i could crack my neck like a "pro". but somewhere around 6th grade i remember thinking, hmmm thats funny i dont crack my neck anymore, and BOOM. it started again. at one point, it frustrated me wating to crack them again, yes, but i would just keep pushing and pushing and twisting and trying even if they wouldnt. which just aggrivated my joints more. Im not 100% on this one, but i think one day you probably wont be so excited to crack your bones. is it everything? or just your fingers or what? im curious…. 8O



  • yeah a lot of my cracks are really loud and almost like a low sound. where people on the other side of a football field i swear would be like whoa. (bad example) but yeah they sound real deep and those ones are the ones that hurt the worst.



  • I can't help but to repeat what I go thru 24/7 if you pop on a consistant basis you will wear done soft bone between your joints (cartillage) then its bone on bone rubbing which really hurts. my wrist is swollen from tendonitis and my shoulder feel like there is a knife in it. JUSTDONT DO IT SO MUCH…..PLZ
