How are your joints?

Hi,
 
is it just me that has clicking wrists, shoulders and hips?
my knee and ankle click and are painful too, ive pretty much accepted they are kn@ckered but slightly concerned about every other joint!
 
just wondering how everyone else is getting on
 
i used to be in alot of pain before i started stretching and using a foam roller once or twice a day, alot better now, but still quite sore and stiff esp around my lower back and hips after sitting down all day in work

Was doing pullups last week and got 2 large deep cracks from the middle of my spine, was abit worried to lower myself after hear that lol.

my knees get a bit sore if I've done a lot of exercise the day before but apart from the odd click here and there, I'm good.

I try to take glucosamine every day, don't know whether this has helped.

My left wrist has been clicking recent but its ok, i may start to stretch though as ive heard its good.

Have problems with my shoulders and can't open my left leg very far without my groin hurting.

I'm guid, must've been assembled pretty well.

My neck gets quite stiff now and again from playing american football, from all the hitting. Wheat pack on it after being in the microwave helps though.

Painless clicks are nothing to worry about.


My joints seem reasonably healthy. I only train twice a week, so I get plenty of rest. My elbows are my least healthy joints, but only give me occasional aggro.

I get a bit of a stiff neck and have several joints that click. I tend to rotate my lower back and click that on a daily basis. None of these gives me any pain.

I do get a bit of a sore shoulder at times, my left was dislocated when i was a nipper and had a nasty knock when i was 15 and hasn't been right since.

Tempted to go see a physio/chiripractor/sports therapist about my shoulder but lack of funds puts it off.

Lucky you, I think I was assembled by Stevie Wonder. I creak and crack all over the place, my ankles are the worst when I go up stairs.

Dodgy left wrist from getting trapped under the bar all the time.

Dodgy left ankle, prone to soreness.

Do you mean 'clicks' or the sort of popping noise that you get when you crack your knuckles?  My knees are pretty bad for that, whenever I bend down my knees pop quite loudly.  Also my shoulders are really bad, I can make them pop to order by putting my hand behind my back

Most of my joints click and knees, shoulders and one elbow are painful when I train - years of abuse and 7 years of hammering my body when competing contributed I guess. Only started a couple of years ago surprisingly - I m now nearly 41.

RHF you have bad joints - you only look 18-20 in your avi pic.

Thank you Dav, you will be on my Crimbo card list

ah thanks.

Mine are ruined at 27.

I'm in agony every morning without fail, it's 45 mintes some mornings before I can even shift my head. I was going to make a seperate thread on this about those who post on Muscle Talk who no longer train, I'm at a crossroads with this, as I keep hearing the saying use it or lose it, then on the other hand the pain is at times almost unbearable.

ive had lower back pain for 15yrs which effects me squatting and deadlifting

currently my right elbow hurts and the side of my left knee feels a little tender

other than that im fine but its only a matter of time before an old ache reappears like my wrists

Jesus mate, hope you have had that properly checked out?

I'm under a Rheumatoid specialist who as to see me twice a year, which on the one hand is cool as I can see him at request also, but on the other a concern as he needs to see me twice a year, which concerns me long term. I train more or less the same as I've always trained, things have altered all be it slightly as in now my training is like say 60% weights 30% stretching 10% cardio. I also cater more for recovery than I used to, but none the less all that said I do question training for me in this format long term. As regards having it checked out mate I've had the lot lol, Orthopedic specialist, Neurophysiologists, plus Physio, and copius amounts of drugs.
