Next we stopped by the inestimable How Stuff Works. Marshall Brain corroborated our earlier findings and offered a bit more detail. Heexplains that the bubble forms in a process called "cavitation." Once you've cracked your knuckle, it takes about 25-30 minutes for the gas to dissolve into the joint fluid. During this time, you can't crack the knuckle again. But once the gas is dissolved, cavitation is once again possible, and you can start popping your knuckles to your hand's content.
Okay, now we know what happens when you crack your knuckles, but are you doing serious damage? We read a bit more and discovered that only one in-depth study of the issue has been published. The study focused on 300 habitual knuckle crackers and found no evidence linking knuckle cracking and Arthritis. Chronic crackers did suffer other harm, including soft tissue damage and loss of grip strength. This damage is usually minor, however, and cracking your knuckles actually has some benefits -- you'll feel looser and enjoy more mobility in your joints immediately after popping.

No it is not because you could eventually break your fingers it does become a habit try to challenge yourself to not crack your fingers for a whole day if you do that congratulate yourself by dong something special.Recent research is showing that people who do crack their knuckles may be more prone to arthritis in the future. This is a good reason not to do this.
