Cracking bones: The most important thing i tell my patients when they ask about cracking or popping joints is "does it hurt when they crack or pop?" if the answer is yes, than they should definitely be examined asap, if not then you should go have it looked at immediately when it is does begin hurting or if there is a noticeable change like swelling. http://www.hopkinsortho.org/joint_cracking.html.
