Cracking knuckles and arthritis |
|
Dear Ask The Doctor: Can you get arthritis by cracking your knuckles ? Dear Nathan: It is not recommended to be putting over stress in any joint, meaning “cracking your knuckles”, because in the long run the ligaments and all the other elements that constitute the finger joints get affected and you may start to have several problems as: pain, limitation, and possibly swelling. |
