I can pop my ankles almost non stop since around 2 years ago for some reason (no pain or anything), lol
I can do this as well. Every single girlfriend I have had in my life absolutely hated it. I don't even notice myself doing it sometimes.
It's kinda "addictive", so hard to resist the urge. Hopefully it has no negative health effects (there was that study about one who popped their knukles and found out it wasnt damaging, hopefully they are correct)
I have also read that exact same study lol. If it turns out it's deadly I guess I'll see you in the afterlife soon haha
I can do that too. Bonus since I sprained one at 16, I'll just be randomly walking along when something in my ankle makes an audible pop and dislocates for just long enough for me to stumble and take another step.
I had a wrist sprain a few years back and got an X-ray. They told me my ulna was about a millimeter longer than it probably should be. I'm wondering if that's the case for most of my joints and that's why I creak like gammy's favorite rocking chair
Ugh ouch
I dont know if I sprained mine, I remember picking up running for a few weeks (cuz I thought doing only weights wasnt the best idea) and I remember my ankles feeling sore after running. I expected it to be normal though, cuz I don't tend to run a lot (though I walk a lot). 🤷
Haven't done an xray yet, might do one day
I can do it, but only with my left ankle! It's almost like I'm sliding the tendon across the bone? making a really loud "popping" sound, over and over. I've been able to do it for as long as I can remember and it's never hurt. Never met anyone else who could do it!
