I do both all the time. I actually get real achy if I don't do that once every hour or so. :kitty:
Wow, maybe you're developing some kind of condition.

I hope not. I've been like this since high school. People always gave me weird looks whenever I did it. :kitty:

You might be thinking of breaking your neck. That's an instant death.
So what does it mean if you turn your neck really fast and you get a sharp pain? I used to get that all the time.
I haven't turned my neck far enough to experience that. I pretty much know my limits. :kitty:
For this I wouldn't even have to go to my limit. It happened all the time when I was playing basketball and going for a layup.

You were stretching a muscle that isn't used to that kind of work. I get it all the time now because of surgery. When you're forced to lay around the house because standing up or moving around hurts too much you're muscles seize up. It's been six months and I'm still trying to loosen some around my chest but man does it hurt.
^^I didn't think that it was a muscle because it always felt like a crack and it would throb for a while.
I'm just glad that I don't get it anymore.

Really? I always thought that you pinched a nerve when you did so. It only happened to me twice, and it hurt for a few days. Taking a few ibuprofens made it feel much better.

I know the exact feeling. It. Sucks. :sick:
Pardon the pun... but things that throb ARE muscles...
😊
A heart? Eh, yeah, it's a muscle.
Well, perhaps my symptoms weren't "throbs" but more like sharp shoots of pain. There would always be an angle that I could rotate my head to that would [HURT!!], then when I turned it back, it would be [fine].
It's not like it matters, I'm still feelin' kinda' peachy.
^^That's exactly what I had. It wasn't a muscle throb, that was for sure.
Oh. Then perhaps we had different bodily injuries. Ah well, the point is that it sucked when I had it. :tongue:
Hey, maybe I would get it again if I started playing basketball again. Hmm, I've found my activity for tomorrow.
I have to crack my neck and my bakc all the time, and it's kind of scary. I don't do it because I want to, but because they get really stiff and uncomfterble if I don't. (I hate that word. I can never spell it)
I guess it's the same thing with cracking your fingers. Once you start, you have to keep doing it. I know that when you do it, it's really just some fluid coming out from in between the bones, but why do you have to keep doing it?

Uncomfortable.
😊
I'm always cracking my knuckles, neck, back, elbows, knees and shoulders. Definitely not healthy, but I get stiff and sore if I don't, just like phattonez said...

Boldedness.
I happened to me once, and it got to the point where I had to turn at my WAIST to be able to look at stuff without wincing in pain.
So, duct tape or electrical tape?
Electrical tape for sure, it can be much more practical than duct tape. But that's just me.
Duct tape sticks so much better, so I pick duct tape.
I just got the news a few minutes ago....her aunt died minutes before I got the news.....it's amazing how fast your heart can sink to the bottom of your chest and empty you feel.😞
Look for a piece of writing in a few hours when I pull my self together.
I am so sorry to hear that biggiy. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sorry to hear that... whatever happened, happened, Biggiy. Now I feel super bad for still wondering what happened with Atma and that frozen pizza.
Now I feel super bad for caring if electrical tape or duct tape is better. You should sue whoever created aneurysm.
But in all seriousness, I hope you and the others feel better. Make sure you tell them about the AGNers who feel for all of you.
Awww biggiy... I wish there was more then just mere words that could be conveyed to you... and to your girlfriend and the family/friends that are dealing with this loss of a friend/wife/lover/person.
Gods blessings...
I know how losing a loved one can feel as I've lost a few over the past decade. My condolences go to your friend and her family.
My thoughts go to you, your friends, and family, biggiy.
I've been lurking these forum for years, but never post. Now I feel like some kind of peeping tom...
What is the point of having air conditioning in a home if you never use it?! It's hot outside...instead of running up the electric bill with fans why not use the ac? At least it works.
I extend my condolences to you Biggiy.
😞 I hope that life soon returns to some semblance of normalcy
