RE: Kids Want To Know: Why Do My Knuckles Pop? Will It Cause Arthritis?

  • when the cracking doesn't hurt, you're perfectly fine
  • when you experience pain with spontaneous cracking, there might be a problem

Ty for the well-written and researched article!

I think that's a good assessment. There was something that said pulling the joint apart instead of bending it is the easiest on your knuckles.
