| My joints make a lot of noise. It's mostly painless, except for the bum knees which are sore more often than not, but it's really annoying! Anyone know if this is indicative of a problem? Has anyone "cured" their crackly joints? I don't exercise, except for lots of walking. It's 90% laziness, but 10% because I fear making my joints worse. I'm in my mid-30s, fwiw. |

| When your joints crake/ pop its normally because excess nitrogen builds up in the space between joints and when you compress them it "pops" its not bad for you at all and doesn't usually indicate any other prolems. I'm young (20's) and my joints have done it since I can remember. I don't think theres a "cure" but you can kind of control it. I took ballet for 10+ years and I figured out how to not make my knees pop. I use breathing and imagry to think of pulling up/ breathing in at the same time as I bend my knees etc. it usually works. |
