It can cause arthritis, just like popping any joint can. ]

You have a higher chance of getting athritis. It also makes the bone a little out of line and looser (my mom told me, shes a nurse lol).

Well you can get arthuritus<-- how ever you spell it.. and you can grow up to have bad neck problems.. that what my mom told my friend carly..cuz she always does that and my mom knows cause she is a docter.. well i hope i helped ]
Yes it is possible that you will have something wrong with your neck when your older. Go see that doctors and ask them for some advice about it.

Yes it is possible to ruin your neck when you do that. It is the same thing if you crack your knuckles, you can get arthritis. Hope i helped! ]
No, it's not true that you'll mess up your neck from cracking it. If you somehow crack it wrong, you could pull a muscle but that rarely happens. Don't worry, you won't have a messed up neck when you're older. ]
NO its not tru you just need to take care of it until it is better ]
I "crack" mine every evening, all's well so far! :) Don't think it will hurt you. ]
No, not entirely. When you crack your neck you release a fluid buildup in your bones, which you dont need. Therefor helping yourself ^_^

In short: no, not really.
As I understand it, neck cracking streches the ligaments in the neck further than they were meant to, which puts more stress on the muscles and may result in stiffness and from that the desire to do it again (and so on and so forth). It is also ~suspected~ of accelerating the eventual onset of arthritis.
Note that finger cracking also doesn't cause arthritis but does weaken your grip significantly if done very much, an effect that I can personally confirm. Possibly cracking your neck will have the same effect... maybe that's why my posture is so bad eh? ]
That's what I've always heaRd. Now, if it's tRue oR not, I have no idea. I suppose it could be? But a couple times won't huRt, so have at it. =D ]
Lol I do the same thing. I'm trying not to, because there is a chance it might cause Arthritis. (not something that you want to mess with - especially if it runs in your family - as it does in mine). I would try and stop because of the chance, and you might disalign (sorry about spelling) a vertebrae. Or hurt a tendon or muscle. Or pull a nerve. There's just alot that could go wrong, that's why I'm trying to stop. That's just my opinion though. :)
