Risks of Neck Clicking
Dr. Svitlana Aleksandrova, a neurologist, discussed the risks and determinants of neck cracking, warning that forceful and sudden movements of the head, such as rapid rotation or tilting, can damage the wall of the vertebral artery and cause tearing. Although rare, this is a serious condition that can impair blood flow and lead to a stroke. She explained that the cracking sound is often due to pressure differences within the joint or the movement of tendons and ligaments, and does not always indicate any real correction of vertebral position. She emphasized that persistently moving the neck until it makes a cracking sound might be a sign of muscle tension or other issues, and in such cases, consulting a specialist is recommended to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
