Something in my neck is popping out of place

I actually found a doctor that found out what was going on. I went to an ENT that took a CT scan and he was like you might just be thinking it's doing that but it's not as dramatic as you feel cuz he didnt see anything in the scan. He sent me to a 2nd option specialist and she caught something on my scan. It shows I have part of my cartilage in my throat has fully ossified. This means cartilage has hardened like a bone. usually this starts happening when you are in your 30s and fully ossifies around 65.For some reason mine has been fully ossified for years. (I am 30 now) there is no fix. they just hope as I age the rest of the cartilage ossifies. the popping put sensation happens because the cartilage in your throat moves but the ossified part doesn't, causing it to pop out of place.
