Cracking my back


Question Posted Saturday January 6 2007, 5:20 pm

Is cracking my back safe?
By cracking I mean when you sit in
a chair and twist around. I picked up
the habit from kids at school and it really
makes my back feel better! However, the
horrendous cracking noises worry me.

NO! Try not to crack your back. When you grow up, it will start to hurt. It's kind of like cracking your knuckles. When you crack your knuckles and you grow up, you have a higher chance of getting arthritis in your hand. Really try not to crack your back!

as someone who studies medical things, no, it is not safe. you should go to a licensed chiropratic clinic.



Thanks

it's ok to crack your back. if you go to a chiropractor they do the same thing. When it cracks it just means that your vertabrae are either adjusting into place or out of place, so if it feels better afterwards, it means it is better aligned. Don't worry about the weird noise and you can keep on cracking, but if you crack it and it feels worse instead of better, go to a chiropractor to be safe.
