It's a myth...It was brought about by Dr. Mom, who was most likely irritated by the cracking noise when her children/husband/etc.. cracked knuckles and thus she said that to have them stop doing it.
Again it's a myth.

This reminds me of when I was little and I wanted to try coffee. My mom told me that if I drank coffee I would grow a mustache. Now I'm 24 I drink a lot of coffee and no mustache, what gives?
