I fucking hate people who crack their knuckles with a passion... I'm pretty damn flexible and can do things with my body that people cringe when they see it, but hearing cracking knuckles is like fingernails on chalkboard for me...

Most of you think that cracking your knuckles doesn't cause arthritis. Dr. Thomas J. A. Lehman agrees, saying "cracking your knuckles is socially unacceptable, but medically irrelevant."

Question: Can “popping” or “cracking” your knuckles or other joints lead to the development of arthritis?

 

Answer: Unless you injure the joint (such as dislocate it, which is very unlikely), you will not promote the development of arthritis by cracking your knuckles.

its the bomb.

 

Eventually, you may have rough surfaces moving against each other, to which the body might respond by swelling, increasing the amount of fluid and blood in the area. In the end, you could have a joint ("arthro") that is inflamed ("-itis").
