When my back starts hurting, I have someone crack it, and then it feels better. I heard air bubbles or gas is released. Can some explain it to me like I’m five about why this would relieve pain and how it all works?

About the gas…
Trapped gas in your digestive system can cause back pain and bloating. Gas in your digestive system is relatively normal and usually released through belching or flatulence. But when excess gas can’t escape, it gets trapped. As a result, gas can cause back pain and other uncomfortable symptoms.
Maybe you just cracked a helluva fart?
