How to reduce hand cracking sounds for better wrestling?
Hello doctor,
I have been arm wrestling for close to seven years and with time I have noticed a couple of things about my wrist that are hindering my ability to have healthy progress in this sport. The main issue is with wrist flexion. My problem is that while doing the flexing motion of the wrist with a decent load on it, it cracks in some positions and I lose all my power. In my right wrist, I feel the crack around the ulnar styloid region and in my left wrist, I can feel it around the scaphoid area. The thing is that the thicker the handle of the weight is the better it feels on the wrist, once it is past a certain thickness the cracking stops and I can train properly. Another thing that I notice is that if I try to flex my wrist with squeezed gripper (it is like a plier that you squeeze) then the motion is not smooth at all. I can feel all sorts of cracks and it hurts. The cracks are mainly around the scaphoid area in both wrists, and it is less on the right. Do you believe that a chiropractor could fix this? Do you have any idea of what the problem might be? Please help.

What causes pain in the spine's middle and shoulder blades?
Hello doctor,
I am having an uncomfortable feeling between the middle of my spine and my left shoulder blade. It seems to get stiff, and my bones pop a lot around there, and it is very uncomfortable to sit in specific ways feels like my bones shift, well the other night it seemed as if my shoulder would pop out of place causing more stiffness after a while of dealing with it.
I ended up feeling a popping sensation, where the stiffness was an instant relief. It was so shocking it put my anxiety through the roof. I thought I was going to die because my whole body was shaking and tingling. What am I dealing with? Right now I have no pain or tenderness near that area still relief but curious about what happened and why I got this shock and that popping feeling so loud it scared me half to death.

What exercises help stabilize an unstable sacroiliac joint?
Hello doctor,
I have an unstable sacroiliac joint that gives me pain, which is relieved by adjustment for a few days. My doctor tells me it is not stabilized, but may become that way sometime in the future, but now needs frequent treatments. What should I do? Is there any stretching exercise that will free up the joint? Any other advice?
