IsItBullshit: Does cracking your knuckles cause arthritis later in life
My mom and teachers warned me for years that cracking my knuckles would lead to arthritis when I got older. I have been doing it since childhood out of habit and now as an adult I still do it daily without thinking. I have not developed any joint problems yet but the warning always stuck with me. Is this a real risk backed by science or is the whole arthritis claim complete bullshit?
