A member asked:
Can popping your neck and back as a young person cause permanent life long damage or lead to surgery
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Complex issue; yes,: likely, because such maneuvers, especially enough to create popping sensations, possibly noise, are inherently generating enough tissue trauma to generate the sensation (sound?), body structure, as in all living systems (all open systems; i.e. everything made of keeps changing), is based on a constant remodeling/rebuilding based on previous structure as an ongoing foundation.
