The crackling of the neck gives a feeling of relief and helps to relieve muscle strain and pain, according to the site "Mirror" Britain.

The sound at the crackling of the neck results from a slight stretch that temporarily separates the neck joints, creating an air bubble.

However, doing so puts us at risk of rupture in the inner lining of the artery, leading to blood clots.

There is a chance that these blood clots will dissolve on their own.
