Hi @bobwhitecoldsnow, I moved your post and question to th is existing discussion that @trellg132 started in Bones, Joints & Muscles group and the Spine Health group. See here:

- What can I do about arthritis in neck and lower back? https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/arthritis-in-neck-and-lower-back/

I did this so you can more easily connect with members with similar experiences like @jenniferhunter @wgatap21 @dorisena @jmb73 @candrgonzalez @mickeyb2

Have you sought the advice of a spine specialist?

@bobwhitecoldsnow - I just want to respond to your problem - specifically. It doesn't belong with all the other discussion IMHO. I believe you should find a physical therapist which will handle your problem. It took me two visits. All the creaking, popping, grinding was released. Its kinda like a knuckle in your finger needing to cracked. It will feel SO SO good when you have that released. I forgot why it happens. But it just needs to be cracked like a knuckle. The right therapist will know what to do. I am so sorry I forgot WHY it happened. I did have surgical surgery and everything got gummed up and stuck. Its kinda like a subluxation that chiropractors release in your back...only thing is they never repair it. You always have to go back. You just need a little manual release from a good physical therapist. It wasn't painful and it was done almost a year ago and hasn't returned.
