Is it bad to crack your neck?
yes, and no. I always crack my neck, and I'm just fine. However,
many people say that its bad for your joints and neck ligaments. If
your neck is feeling stiff it'll making you want to crack it; which
loosens your ligaments and makes you feel better for a while. But
then it'll just tighten up again; its a cycle, and it wears down ur
joints and ligaments. Or so they say.
Asked in Skeletal System
What happens if you crack your joints?
Bits of cartilage are torn away every time you crack a joint.
When you feel like you need to crack a part of your body you often
dont crack the right place. The only reason you feel good is
because there is a chemical release in the body that tells your
brain "that feels good."
the effects of cracking joints are injury of the ligaments
surrounding the joint or dislocation of the tendons ( attachments
of muscles to bones) which improved with conservative treatment.
also studies have been shown that people who crack their knuckles
have reduced grip strength than people who dont.

Why do your knees crack?
