A member asked:
Is it bad that i crack my neck easily by bringing one leg perpendicular to the other side while laying on my back. lot of lower vertebrae crack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I hope not: Because I do that all the time. I think it's a great stretch. Seriously, it's fine. It's just noise. From ligaments and cartilege and such. You will find the noise increases as you get older!
