After twisting the neck, there is always a "click" is there a problem with the cervical spine? I suggest you don't do these things

When I was a child, I thought that it was cool for adults to make sounds after cracking their knuckles. But when I grew up, every time I sit for a long time until my neck is stiff and I twist my neck, I will make a "click" sound, I always suspected that there was something wrong with the cervical spine. What is the matter?

Why is there a sound after cracking knuckles?

It is recommended that you do not pull your fingers excessively. Although there will be clear and crisp cracking sound during this process, which is very comfortable, if it is pathological, it may lead to cartilage and tendon damage. In normal physiological conditions, the sound is caused by vibration caused by gas in the joint cavity.

If it is not deliberately pulled, in other stages, such as squatting suddenly, getting up, stretching the body, and so on, the fluid at the joints is concentrated. In order to ensure the normal operation of joints and chin, there are gaps between the joints. This gap is called joint cavity in medicine, until the liquid and joint cavity collide, there will be a sound.

Why is there always a "click" after twisting the neck?

The principle of twisting the neck is almost the same as cracking knuckles, except that the main part of the neck lies in the cervical joint. When the cervical joint suddenly appears abnormal physiological changes, muscles, ligaments, nerves are stimulated, and then there is a sound, which belongs to the category of "click" from the hearing.

Some people may worry that the appearance of these sounds will affect the health of the joints. In most cases, they are normal physiological phenomena, and they will not appear repeatedly. They are usually single. Of course, we will not because of these movements induced joint coarseness, bone spur, arthritis and so on.

For pathological sound, we need to pay attention to. If the sounds are accompanied by pain, fatigue, and numbness, especially when judging cervical spondylosis. If you experience fatigue, neck discomfort, dizziness, headache, tinnitus, arrhythmia, etc. during walking, you should go for related examinations for early detection and treatment.

In addition, white-collar workers, desk staff, IT Industry should pay attention to the protection of cervical spine, especially in sitting posture. Whether it is a nap or sedentary, do not let the cervical vertebra too inclined, when the occurrence of neck pain, migraine, persistent tinnitus, may be to explain the cervical vertebra too strain, carotid artery compression caused by the phenomenon.

Should let cervical vertebra rest in time, use spare time to do some stretching, head up and other movements, to promote cervical blood circulation. In addition, try not to stay up late. The longer you stay up late, the less rest your cervical spine will be, and the more likely you will have stiff neck and headache the next day, the greater the probability of cervical pain, which is unfavorable to the prevention of cervical spondylosis.
