Why? When I press in the muscle along my spine does it feel and sound like little little twigs breaking?

Question:

I don't know how else to describe the sound or feeling. It sounds and feels like I'm pressing on rice crispies. This happenes all up and down my back. Anyone?

Answers:
It's subcutaneous emphasyema. I comes from air leaking into the tissues, because of trauma to your chest, trachea or lungs somehow. Did you get hit or get in a wreck. You really should got to the ER now if you have any trouble breathing or if it's getting worse. THIS IS A VERY SIGNIFICANT SYMPTOM!!

Maybe you should go to the doctor and have this checked. It could be something serious. I have no idea what it is but it don't sound right. I tried to make my back sound like that and it didn't.
