Do you do other: Things as well, such as counting, moving in a certain way, etc.? It could simply be a useless habit developed from anxiety or something more, like ocd. A mental health professional can diagnose what it is and put your mind at ease.

Health anxiety: Sometimes people engage in excessive checking because of hypochondriasis, ocd or both.
