I get this too, sometimes it will crack, it's horrible, I wonder what it is?

I also get stiff/achy shoulders and neck. Look forward to the answers.

I had this problem along with cracking of other joints. I got a private test for my Vit D which showed I was very severely deficient . I took the results of my test to my gp who gave me a high dose prescription for pro D3.

Ask your Gp for a vit d test. If he refuses you can get one done privately at vitamindtest.org.uk it costs £25.

After 2 months all my pain and cracking went and I felt much better.

I put my creaky neck down to onset of arthritis, but I do have a problem when I look upwards sometimes, I go almost deaf. Anyone else have this? I am about to have my initial GP visit to discuss my symptoms.
