A member asked:

Is it okay that i can crack my wrists? pretty much everything cracks. i occasionally do it on purpose to make them feel better because ive been having issues with pretty much all of my joints. i know i need to see a doc in person, im working on it?

Cracking your joints will not do any harm, but you do need to understand why do you need to do that. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/., exercise 30 minutes/day, drink enough water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!
