Neck cracking and popping complications While medical literature assures us that the repeated cracking of any synovial jointsâincluding the neckâwill not increase the risk of arthritis, it may cause other complications. In rare instances, manipulation of the cervical spine may cause vertebral artery dissection that can result in a stroke.
If you crack your neck to relieve pain, you aren't alone. By one estimate, chiropractors perform between 18 and 38 million cervical spine manipulation treatments each year.
