Is there any harm in twisting the neck and making a noise?

The joints of the neck are relatively complex. It is an important part of the spine and the head needs support from the neck. Therefore, the health of the neck has a great impact on people, and many people suffer from frequent neck problems due to various factors in their lives. For example, twisting the neck is one of the common problems, but is there any harm in twisting the neck and making noise? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

Disadvantages of twisting the neck

Twisting your neck to make the cervical vertebrae make a sound may seem to show your personality, but it can easily damage the cervical vertebrae and even cause recurrence of cervical vertebrae diseases.

1. Joint wear

Frequent twisting of the neck can easily lead to joint wear, because the noise made by twisting the neck is often caused by friction between joints. If you do this frequently, joint wear is very likely to occur. If this continues for a long time, it will cause cervical pain and other conditions.

2. Chronic ligament strain

There are ligaments in the cervical spine, but frequent twisting of the cervical spine will cause chronic strain of the cervical ligaments. Over time, it will lead to cervical muscle soreness, especially on rainy days. This situation will be more obvious, causing a lot of inconvenience to people's lives.

In addition, chronic ligament strain is prone to ligament calcification. I don't need to say much about the damage caused by ligament calcification to physical health, and I believe everyone knows it. So in order to avoid this situation, you must not twist your cervical spine frequently to make it make noises.

3. Cervical dislocation

There is no need to explain the dangers of cervical dislocation. Everyone knows that if you are not careful, it may lead to more dangerous vertebral joint dislocation. If you twist your neck frequently and too hard, it can easily lead to cervical dislocation.

Dislocation of the cervical vertebrae is very dangerous and may even compress the trachea, causing breathing difficulties and endangering life safety. Therefore, you need to pay special attention to this.

4. Cervical Spondylosis

Cervical spondylosis is not good for the body. It can easily cause dangerous conditions such as dizziness, tinnitus, chest tightness, and palpitations. One of the causes of this disease is chronic injury to the cervical spine. Frequent twisting of the cervical spine, wear and tear of the cervical joints, and strain of the cervical ligaments will increase the chance of this disease.
