I am an actual doctor, ask away.

Should I be worried that  my neck cracks. It's a similar kind of sound to my knuckles cracking, except that it takes hours before I can crack my knuckles again wheras my neck can do it every time if I lean my head back and rotate anti-clockwise. From online research I believe it's cartilage folding between vertibrae then snapping back into place, but I wouldn't mind knowing if it is harmless or not.


My neck does that all the time, if I twirl my head all I can hear is *crack* *crack* *crunch*. Been like that all my life.
