    Default Popping in the sternum - Anyone?

    Does this happen to anyone else? It's really not painful, but it sometimes gets tight feeling. I can pop it multiple times by turning side to side and eventually it won't pop again until the next day. It's kinda weird. I asked my doctor and he said, quote, "We don't worry about things like that". ROFL! Amazingly, Google doesn't help me either really. Most people have it from trauma, but no such thing here.

    I also smoke a pack a day. I don't think that is it though. That just prevents me from running anywhere... and walking sometimes too!

    Mine pops whenever I stretch, but the doctor said that was because of one of my bad accidents.

    I have a similar problem where my cartilage in my chest has seperate.. apparently it could have happened at any time.. sleeping wrong/coughing hard.. whatever dr's can fix it with out a major surgeory so i just keep some anti inflamitories around.. which help a bit.
