Mine used to thunk; I thought it was my spondiliothesis site. But now I am

suspicious of whether my discs are collapsing or bone spurs are forming and

catching on ligaments. There used to be a dull pain that was associated

with it. Now; I feel increasing pressure that I can only relieve if I lay

against the floor. I will also stand with my back against the wall, do a

pelvic tilt and then ever so slowly lean forward. There will be a

resounding pop in the area that used to be a thunk and the pressure will be

relieved; but will be dull and achey.

I have no idea if my 'thunk and pop' is the same as your 'thunk'; we may be

talking about two different things.
