First of all cracking your knuckles isn't your bones grinding together, it is air being released from between your knuckles And yes, cracking your knuckles is bad for you because it damages your ligaments and it erodes the cushion between your fingers which will hurt you. The safe way to crack your knucles is pull at them until they crack. I used to also crack my knuckles all the time so at first it is hard but later it will not be botherish.

There is NO evidence that doing this periodically, unless it becomes an obsessive-compulsive behavior is in any way bad for you.
