    Every once in a while my back pops while sitting still but it's usually only when I take a breath. I can never tell if it's my back or my ribs or neck, I just feel these little cracks and pops. I wouldn't worry too much about it unless you start feeling pain or discomfort. If you're really concerned you may just want to go see your doctor or chiropractor, maybe your back just needs a good adjusting/alligning.

    No that is not normal. it sounds to me like you have a disk slipping or has slipped but is not enough to hurt you yet. I recommend that you go see an orthopedic doctor and get an x-ray. your back should not pop unless you pop it.
