So usually when I ask a patient to make a fist, everything is cool as long as they keep it tight. But every once in a while, someone will stick their arm out, make a fist, and I swear I hear this loud crackling coming from their joints. It literally reverbs in my ears and makes me wonder if that was their medical complaint for the day.
It gives me the Urkel just thinking about the sound. It’s exactly like cracking your knuckles, but for every single tendon in their forearm. I swear.
Not sure if anybody else hears this? I don't know if it’s just the room echoing, or if perhaps I’m just becoming way too hyper-aware here lol. Let me know I'm not the only one hearing the crunch.
