A number of factors can contribute to clicking joints. In particular, the neck vertebrae can produce a clicking sound upon rotational movements, or during any kind of flexion be it lateral or toward the front as well as during extension( tilting the head toward the back). Among these factors, one is known as spontaneous cavitation, or air release that creates this popping sound, and for the most part generating release as also an equally spontaneous adjustment is taking place therefore releasing a trapped structure, nerves mostly etc. Other grinding and clicking happen as a consequence of loss of integrity in the discs, and the vertebrae themselves that start to rub against each other at times as a result of post traumatic stages, lack of mobility, proper nutrition, exercises etc. A good way to maintain this health is adding regular traction maneuvers to the cervical spine and other areas of the body to fight the jamming effects of gravity.

Don't do it, its not worth it.
What should you do if you think you may have a serious problem with your neck after cracking it a lot?
Cracking your neck is just like cracking your knuckles... You're opening the joint between the facet joints between the cervicle veterbra; the resulting vacuum "sucks" a small bubble of nitrogen into the joint. This results in the "popping" sound. Numerous studies have proved that no damage is being done to the articular bones... The biggest indicator of damage to a joint is "pain" and stiffness...
