Why do your Knuckles make that Crackling Sound ?

Do Knuckles have mini crackers inside ? Why do these joints make such weird noises ?

Come lets Find the SCIENCE behind it....

Joints are basically connectors of two bones , hence to reduce friction between the bones they have a jelly like Synovial Fluid which acts like a Lubricant and prevents Inflammation of Joints.

So the Final Verdict is that whether it is Diwali or Pongal you have a free natural eco friendly Cracker to burst.
