The sound comes from the fingers due to the synovial fluid.
According to scientists, there is a fluid in the joints of the body, which is called Synovial Fluid. When you crack your fingers, the gas of this fluid present between the joints is released and the bubbles formed inside it also burst. This is the reason that there is a sound when you crack your fingers. You must have noticed that once you crack your fingers, you have to wait for a while to crack them again. It is said that for this you have to wait for 20 minutes.

According to research, the synovial fluid acts as a greasing in the bones, but by repeatedly cracking the fingers, the liquid between them starts decreasing. If it ends completely, then gradually pain starts in the joints.
