What happens to our joints, when we pop or crack them? And is it bad for you?

Synovial fluid is the lubricant-like substance that's found in between your joints. It looks like an egg yolk.S o when you stretch out your joint, you are releasing gas, and that gas forms a bubble and it collapses and pops.

In order to crack the same knuckle again, you have to wait about 20 minutes for the gas to return back to that fluid. So, how is that different from a pop you hear when you stand up quickly?

The sound you're probably hearing then is the snapping sound tendons make when sliding between muscles or over bones. When a joint moves, the tendon snaps quickly over and it makes a popping sound.

So, is the knuckle-cracking habit safe?

Probably, Donald Unger was sort of a self-described researcher who chose to pop the joints in one of his hands for 60 years, but not the other one. And he wanted to find out if popping your knuckles would actually give you arthritis.

After 60 years of doing it, he found that he didn't have any more arthritis in one hand than in the other. But there's still a chance it's not good for you.

In 1990, it was found that cracking your knuckles over a long period of time led to hand swelling and decreased scrip strength, but there hasn't been any follow-up research on that. So while cracking your knuckles might not be bad for you, there's still no guarantee that your popping habit won't annoy the people around you.

Built bridges but do not cross them!

Hypnotized by West! The society you live in has norms and rules! Society works as a discipline and it appears abnormal if you corrupt it. Being in a modern world ( as everyone living in an age considers his age modern ) we have many things around us that the believers of Islam of early age lacked like the biggest revolution, I say it the social media. Its obsession confronts vague for most Muslims only because people spent half of their time in a day searching and scrolling down Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. Is this right to spend most of the time with it? It seems as life is elevated becoming more harder even to think is there any other thing that requires our attention. It seems we are hypnotized by the revolution we had achieved in the past few years. What is the ultimate limit of this modern world or is there an end to revolutions?

Pakistan-Russia Relationship after 1947

Pakistan-Russia Relationship after 1947 Pakistan and Russia (or its predecessor state, the Soviet Union) have had a complex relationship since Pakistan's independence in 1947. In the early years of Pakistan's existence, the Soviet Union recognized Pakistan and established diplomatic relations with it. However, relations between the two countries were cool during the early years of the Cold War, as Pakistan was aligned with the United States and the West while the Soviet Union was aligned with India and other socialist countries. During the 1970s, Pakistan and the Soviet Union began to cooperate more closely on a number of issues. The Soviet Union played a key role in ending the war between Pakistan and India over Bangladesh in 1971, and the two countries signed a number of economic and military agreements during the 1970s and 1980s.
