It is called Joint Crepitus that is characterized by a peculiar crackling, crinkly, or grating feeling or sound under the skin, around the lungs, or in the joints. Crepitus in a joint can indicate cartilage wear in the joint space. Typically crepitus is a grinding noise coupled with a sensation in the affected joint. Crepitus can occur with or without pain.

hey there I am a football player my neck cracks a lot when I move it too. I think this is a problem with our vertabreas. Do you do any physical movement that could damage your vertabrea? email me back.
