Cracking your neck can cause a Stroke

[Rafael Passoni]

"The stroke itself occurs due to a condition called cervical artery dissection (CAD). This is when an artery in your neck tears. When this happens, blood begins to leak into the wall of the torn blood vessel, between the thin layers that make up the blood vessel wall.

As blood leaks, the space inside the blood vessel through which blood normally flows becomes narrow or even completely blocked.


Eventually, the blood from the torn artery can clot. This blocks the artery, reducing or cutting off blood flow to an area of the brain. The regions of the brain normally supplied by the damaged blood vessel can experience diminished blood flow, which results in a stroke."

These doctors exaggerate a lot I agree. Maybe it's very very very rare.
