You've got arteries threaded through holes in the vertebrae of your neck that you could pinch off. No idea if that's relevant or anything though.

This is what Chiropractors are for.
When you pop your neck, the reason you're able to, is because your vertebrates can become misaligned, it's pretty normal to occasionally happen. Unfortunately when you do this yourself, you're not really putting it back into place, you can't self adjust that stuff and get it right. Even if it feels better, all you do is shift the misalignment somewhere else along the neck or spine.
If one thing's out of place, something else is probably out of place too. You'd be surprised how totally of whack your body can be, have things adjusted, and feel a huge difference in how you feel physically - things like back pain, neck pain, headaches, body aches, tossing and turning when you try to sleep, etc, can suddenly go away, things you don't even realize are hurting because you've become so desensitized to them because they're always there.
I know how TW in general feels about Chiropractors, but in my view, this is what they're good at doing.

I wouldn't be surprised at all, been in a violent car crash before so its probably a source of some problems.

Yes I always did it for years. Always getting headache / neck tension. Used to often get blurry spots right after. Scans show I have a couple of bulging discs in my neck. I stopped cracking it and now about a year later the headaches are much better. (I still crack it very rarely, it does feel damn good though I usually end up worse off later on)

I've had this before, I believe it's floaters in different lighting then you've moved them around in the past.

I used to crack my neck every morning in the shower.
It won't crack anymore. I just get a grinding sound and feeling when I try.
It sucks getting old.

I use to crack my doo dad, but i stopped bc i think it's bad for muscles. However neck cracking feels much better, especially in the morning.
