My wrist is killing me…



  • I have also been cracking my wrist for a long time now…I find quite relaxing. But if you think that the pain and the stinging is out of the ordinary, then try to consult a doctor...



  • Oooo I just saw this one.

    I wouldn't worry about the cracking as much as I would the over-stretching. I am not of the opinion that the cracking itself causes damage. However, if you bend and bend anything too hard, you can make it sore. Eventually you get more flexibly and ti doesn't hurt anymore.

    Also, you are probably cracking so much because you are thinking about it alot. I find that when I stop worrying about it, I stop thinking about it and crack less.

    I now get two or three REALLY loud ones in the morning (love that) and 2 or 3 throughout the day. Never hurts anymore.

    Ahh I love cracking my wrists.



  • I'm jealous that you can crack your wrists so often!!!

    Cracking my wrists has been a new development for me too, although, it's been at least a year since I've started. I bend my wrists towards me rather than away to get them to crack and I can only do this…twice a week if I get lucky. The first time I did it, it was definitely a shock. I can only do it twice a week because that's all that they will allow, I try to do it more but I won't get anything (I kinda hate that!)

    If it is causing pain, I would definitely slow it down a bit or, as Danielle said, you might just be stretching too much. Mine sort of hurt when I crack them too but, it's a good hurt. Kind of sends a shock wave of stretchiness and awesomey cracky goodness through my muscles and my wrist.



  • hey guys, thanks for all the replies. half a year later and i'm still cracking my wrists, especially the left one. i stopped for about a month completely, then started up again because i can't crack my jaw anymore - so now i'm just doing knuckles and my wrists exclusively… my wrists have been getting more attention just because they do it so frequently, i can't believe it... although i can't crack them in public because the way i manipulate them looks kind of weird, unlike my knuckles, haha.

    the thing is, my knuckles NEVER hurt when i crack, i figure because i've been doing it so long. i still get that stinging pain but it's easier to handle now... and in a weird way i like it (like tinnamariee said)?! anyway, yeah, just an update.



  • stop moaning you dont have it as bad as me



  • ignore him! dont even think about responding…



  • @Danielle:

    ignore him! dont even think about responding…

    please… you have no idea the suffering this one event has had on my life... dont you dare judge me or put my problem on a scale... do you want me to give you the details of my therapist so you can see just how serious my problem is?



  • Is this forum moderated? If so, I'm surprised that a moderator or admin hasn't stepped in because dj100 keeps putting this guy's name out there, even going as far as posting links to his Facebook page in another thread.

    Without proof of the supposed incident, I can't see how this could be anything but harassment and slander. I'm shocked that the people behind this site would allow it.
