The studies indicated that while knuckle-cracking was not associated with arthritis, it was associated with damage to ligaments that surround the joint and dislocation of tendons. There may also be a connection with soft tissue injuries.
No, it's a common and uninformed prejudice that cracking your knuckles causes arthritis.
Donald Unger for 50 years cracked the knuckles of his left hand at least twice a day, leaving those on the right as a control. Thus, the knuckles on the left were cracked at least 36,500 times, while those on the right cracked rarely and spontaneously.
I never claimed I was one, nor do I have the time or will to actually look up and present all arthritis studies related to knuckle cracking. Thus, I decided to write a both interesting and amusing example of such study. Which is also one of the most extensive in that field.
I don't know if you are just 'trolling' or actually serious, but it seems like today's admins have forgot that they are representing something, in this case XF. And I wonder why this website is so deeply rooted and infested with such behavior.
Not agreeing to your stupid remarks is 'trolling'?
Your so called "study" is the same as saying "my grandma smoked for her entire life and she was 98 when she died of being too old", negating the entire knowledge of smoking and lungcancer.
There are many ways of replying to another, some are more profound and respectful and some are less, I'd expect from a person who represents this website to choose the former.
Naturally, every person is entitled to his own opinion, yet the way one presents it, is quite different.
And as you have seemed to ignore the first half of my earlier post, I'll summarize it;
There have been many studies regarding the original topic. Which all, from what I have seen, reach the same conclusion. I chose one of those many studies as an example.
Your first comment was just a load of bs, so a blunt reply is adequate.
You didn't mention "There have been many studies regarding the original topic. Which all, from what I have seen, reach the same conclusion." in your initial comment.

So no; It's not like saying "...".
