What does it mean if your knees and ankles are cracking?

basically saying, it is a normal reaction with your body. it has yet to be proven that these SNAPs are of any real medical relevance.
look for yourself here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cracking_joints
when I said strecthing… anytime you move a muscle, you either stretch it, or contract it. thats how the human body works! som if you move your leg,. you are strateching your ligiments! not growing persay!
The cracking sound in your joints is caused by the release of gasses in your bloodstream. It’s nothing to worry about generally. Some people have suggested there is a link to purposefully doing that & arthritis, or other ailments as you age, however, there aren’t any medical studies that are published in reputable journals that support this.
