Is cracking/clicking your fingers bad for you?

I have a bad habit of biting my skin on my fingers, its getting out of control now?

  • I bite my skin on my fingers to the point where I bleed and have to put bandaids on. I will take nail clippers and cut all my skin off my fingers just to satisfy whatever I'm looking to get...I really dont know why I am doing this...it's a pretty discusting habit that I have had for bout 8 years and it's gotten really bad, is there a certain name for what this is called???? please if anyone has any info..pass it along thanx~Carlee~

  • Answer:

    This is similar to nail biting, but sounds much worse. Usually these habits stem from stress or troubles inside. Some cures involve psychiatric visits and hypnosis. It might be something deep inside that is troubling you and it manifests itself in self destructive behavior. If you can, talk to a psychiatrist first.

I know a few people with the same problem.... they have all found that having fake nails helps them stay away from nibbling their fingers.

i do the same, if i get an air bubble under my skin on the underside of my hands, I just have to pick it, i don't know why, but i do. I normally get an onion and cut it up and rub it on my hands, the taste of the onion turns me off picking and biting at them. it may be disgusting but it works. hope this helps. :D
