A member asked:
I used to move my hyoid from side to side when i noticed that whenever i turn my neck the hyoid makes sounds like: "crack" and "pop". is it possible that the lateral thyrohyoid ligament has torn? if yes, what to do?

No, those are normal sounds when that special bone is passively moved.
