A member asked:

My hole body cracks when i move is this caused by a lack of calcium ? could this also have to do with back injuries?

Dr. Thomas Namey answered

Specializes in Rheumatology

More likely injuries: Lack of calcium does not causes "cracking, " but why does anyone in 2012 have a diet poor in calcium, when nutritional supplements containing calcium are available? More likely from previous back injury, but if you are not in pain, do not worry!
