Any ideas:
I often get this tense feeling across my chest, when I open my chest there's this crunching/ripping sound which can be quite loud (enough to be heard by other people). I also get this tearing sensation in my pec next to my sternum (I think it's always on the right side.) This happens 2 to 3 (if not more) times a day. It's not painful, just slightly uncomfortable.

I thought I was fairly unique in this, but my sparring partner complained about the same thing the other day.

Does anyone know what this this? Whether it's a bad thing or not? Plus any ways of stopping it.

I get a sort of cracking sound in my sternum (similar to when you crack your knuckles or back, except its amplified in my lungs).

I don't know but there was a poster here name Scotty1 who was complaining that his chest was popping - I'd see a doctor. -FJ

My hips pop sometimes. I just kinda relax the hip a bit and put some weight on it, you can feel a pop each time.
