Cracking and creaking bones

[Bozzi]

I don't know if this is normal although the doctors says it is normal for joints to click. My mind says differently, my mind thinks that the doctors fobbing me off as I was only in his room for 2 minutes literally and he was like "It's normal for bones to click, anything else I can help you with"

It's really getting to me though whatever joint i move i hear a crack, click or snap like some of them are even grinding together (e.g my collarbone) and also my throat bone/adams apple seems to click over my windpipe when pushed.

My question for some reassurance is, is it actually normal to have a clicking body where everything clicks during movement. It's driving me insane i just want somebody to shoot me now, I mean i'm only 20 but i feel like a crippled old man or becoming one prematurely. Is it normal guys? And thanks for taking your time to read my post.

Hi,it sounds normal,it can come from muscle tension my neck is always clicking,just try relaxing anxiety can make you feel very old indeed..

[Bozzi]

I think it maybe due to tension and I hope it is whats causing clicking
Thanks puppyskin :)

Wow, I thought I was the only one.

Im only 22, and I feel like I have the bones of a 60 year old haha.
Mostly my shoulders always pop, and when I shake peoples hand my fingers crack!
I avoid bending down because my knees always crack.

But I put this down to being a Graphic Designer, always behind a computer.. So I've started a bit more exercise, hopefully it solves the problem!

well my neck/throat does the same thing, also my chest bones crack which just seems weird to me!

I'm glad to know i'm not the only one with this 'problem' so i will assume its rarther normal i guess...

Anxious gal my chest bone clicks too the sternum literally pops its freaky but wow I havn't met anyone who has that especially. When i stretch my arms behind me and expand the chest it usually pops its quite relieving though but always gets me wondering damn.. am I causing damage here haha

Cheers for the replys,
