THCYM | DOES CRACKING YOUR KNUCKLES GIVE YOU ARTHRITIS?

About this episode

Hi team! 

Back with another short and sweet NSQ episode. Today we are talking about whether mum was right when she told you to "stop cracking those damn knuckles or you'll get arthritis when you're older!"

Is it true? Why do people crack their knuckles? How do I stop? All covered today!

P.s. I crack my knuckles at 3.10m. So skip to 3.20m if you can't handle those sounds.
