No, knuckle cracking does not lead to Arthritis. It is an old tale told over and over again. The human condition is to link every action with a negative or positive effect. Because there is a "cracking" sound, the human condition is to consider this action bad. All that is occurring is the rapid release of gases from the joint capsule back into the blood stream. There is no harm in this.
Also, there has never been a legitimate study that said that "knuckle-crackers" were more prone to arthritis.
On another note, there have been studies saying that the excessive and unnatural movement of the joints such as "knuckle-cracking," can cause ligament damage and even dislocation of tendons.
Hope this helps!

What do your knuckles look like after years of cracking them?
Frequent knuckle cracking does not appear to cause long-term harm or lead to arthritis, contrary to popular belief. However, excessive cracking may stretch the ligaments in the knuckles or make them looser over time. This can potentially lead to some minor swelling or discomfort in the affected area, but it does not cause any permanent damage to the knuckles themselves.
