I can't name the source, but a reputable medical journal had an article some time ago about knuckle cracking. The knuckles may swell due to the cartilage enlarging slightly when it is forced like in knuckle cracking. BUT the big thing is that it does NOT cause arthritis. In fact , it actually helps retard the formation of arthritis.

That's not true. When you crack your knuckles all you are doing is draining the lubrication between your joints. It is a fatty, oily secretion that helps your joints to bend. Your body is able to produce more so don't worry. It doesn't make your joints fatter.

It doesn't & it doesn't cause arthritis either. The popping sound is gas being released from the joint fluid.
