Question

When i move my wrist up and down it cracks and i can feel the two bones shift what is wrong??

Answer 1

The bones are supposed to move. You have a wrist joint there and when it moves and you hear it crack it only means that air is being forced out of the joint by the movement. I just did it myself. It is the same thing when you 'crack' your knuckles. The crack you hear is the air being forced from the joint. Your ulna which is the bone which makes up your forearm articulates (that is moves in tandem) with the bones in your hand. They are supposed to move and that is what you

feel. Try it with your elbow, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle. All these

joints move with the bones and you can feel them all moving when you flex.

Answer 2

sounds like you need to see a doctor...  

Answer 3

your wrist might be out of place... you could either go to a massage therapist, the chiroprator, or the dr... its your call. but if you go to the dr you will jsut get xrays and pain killers or something... and have a huge bill.

Answer 7

you're ignorant...everyone's wrist cracks....

if it hurts really bad, it's probably broken. and you're ignorant.

if not, you're ignorant.

Answer 8

It is normal for your wrist to hurt if you move it SOMETIMES. The cracking sound is due to the air released while moving your wrist joint to a specific angle. But if it hurts really really bad or every now and then I suggest that you might need a doctor's assistance. It may be a sign of rheumatism or other similar disease.
