The CBD is not absorbed into the systemic circulation. Therefore, washing it off would stop its effects.  However, if the CBD helps when you wake up, applying it upon waking and after bathing would be a great option. \nI hope this helps!\n\ndrkim","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_12339-markdown","title":"CBD cannabis oil and sore throat","slug":"cbd-cannabis-oil-and-sore-throat","content":"\"I began using CBD oil about a month ago and feel great overall. I've noticed a significant improvement in various areas: better sleep, fewer headaches, less stress, etc. However, it was giving me a really bad sore throat. I stopped the oil and my sore throat went away. I really want to continue using CBD but want to find a solution to the throat irritation. Are there alternatives? Edibles, capsules?\"\n_____________________\n \nGlad to hear you found symptom relief with CBD oil. It’s too bad you experienced sore throat.\nTo answer your question, below are some alternatives:\n\n- Oral: pills, sublingual, sprays, and edibles (edibles can be difficult to dose). Oral formulations can last up to 5hrs. It can take pills and edibles 1 - 3hrs to work. The spray and sublingual route have an onset of 15-30mins.\n- Transdermal patches - onset of 20 mins, with a duration of 6-12hrs\n- Inhalation - smoking (has associated risks such as bronchitis), and vaping. Onset of 5-15 mins, with a duration of 2-3hrs\n- Topical - applied to painful, itchy areas\n\nLonah NP\n_____________________\n\nSore throat can be a symptom of local irritation, pharyngitis or laryngitis. The inhaled form , regardless of the method, results in vocal swelling and irritation of the local mucous. Some inhaled methods, such as a vaporizer, result in a lesser degree of laryngitis than others such as unfiltered joints.\n\nOil taken under a tongue should cause the irritation and soreness; however, sometimes it can be mild hypersensitivity of the area to the product. In your case you can try mix your oil with food and swallow it, or you can try pills with CBD. \n\nKrabell14","image":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"base64":"data:image/png;base64,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","aspectRatio":1.36986301369863,"src":"/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/97f33/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.png","srcSet":"/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/69585/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.png 200w,\n/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/497c6/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.png 400w,\n/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/97f33/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.png 483w","srcWebp":"/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/e4e06/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.webp","srcSetWebp":"/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/61e93/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.webp 200w,\n/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/1f5c5/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.webp 400w,\n/static/d026e25370e7e586f6343f7d06b3ff66/e4e06/0beff56b4f4b9d34d59a48ef8e15bc82.webp 483w","sizes":"(max-width: 483px) 100vw, 483px"}}}}},{"node":{"id":"Question_12221-markdown","title":"Hello, will this help with relieving chronic headaches due to an automobile accident?","slug":"hello-will-this-help-with-relieving-chronic-headaches-due-to-an-automobile-accident","content":"\"I was in an auto accident about 2 years ago where I was rear-ended by a distracted driver at a stop light, and since then, I have not had a single day where I do not have a headache.

My daily symptoms include (neuropathic) headaches, sleep disturbances, neurocognitive disorders, psychological problems, and more. Cannabis with (higher) THC helps me like no other medicine in the world. However, cannabis acts only for few hours then all symptoms come back. On the Internet, I read that the main difference between THC and CBD is that THC substitutes a function of natural \"receptors\" (works only symptomatically), but CBD restores their function (works currativelly). Unfortunatelly a dose of CBD does not give me any relief. My question is: is it please possible that my symptoms might gradually disappear with long-term therapy only on CBD or do I have to keep combine with THC to feel the effect?\"\n_____________________\nWell, as far as I've experience the CBD product, it gave me really good relief from my symptoms.\nI would like to say that if you want relief permenantly, you should wait and watch. CBD may give you temperory effect on your symptoms, but it will surely cure your diesease.\nTalking about THC, I really suggest you not to take the CBD product which include THC. Because THC simply makes you high and is illigel as well.\nYou can take any CBD product which contains less than 0.3% THC.\n\nI suggest you to take Green Roads World's CBD Oil (https://www.greenroadsworld.com/collections/cbd-cannabis-oils) for that.\n\nsebastianwross\n_____________________\nUnfortunately there is no 1 size fits all with cannabis and no 'silver bullet'. Most often symptom relief for any medical condition comes by slowly figuring out what combination of products, cannibinoids and possible ratios work for you. Many people believe that CBD is more effective when used in combination with THC and all the other cannbinoids-CBN, CBG, THCA and so on. This is called the entourage effect. THC can be very minimal and not cause a psychoactive high, especially when in combination with CBD.\n\nIn my experience talking with people, LYME is most often 'cured' by something other than cannabis-alternative treatments, etc. People I have spoken with indicate that cannabis is best for symptom relief for the inflammation, insomnia and pain associated. I am not a doctor but I would caution you if anyone says cannabis is a cure for your medical condition. I like to say it is a tool for potential health and wellness when used appropriately. \n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8500-markdown","title":"What do you recommend for arthritis in neck and hands/wrists?","slug":"what-do-you-recommend-for-arthritis-in-neck-and-hands-wrists","content":"\n_____________________\nHello,there are two cannabinoids found in marijuana that have especially profound efficacy for those with arthritis: CBD and THC. CBD, or cannabidiol, is responsible for immune system modulation, meaning it is helpful for an autoimmune condition like rheumatoid arthritis. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol — and byproducts of its metabolism — has been found to be anti-inflammatory and analgesic (pain killing). THC is also known to reduce the anxiety and depression that commonly accompany severe diseases, especially those that affect one’s mobility.\n\ncherylnp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8428-markdown","title":"What is the best cannabis product you can recommend for headaches caused by anxiety?","slug":"what-is-the-best-cannabis-product-you-can-recommend-for-headaches-caused-by-anxiety","content":"\n_____________________\nFormulations with equal THC/CBD ratio and formulations with low THC/High CBD ratio seem to be effective for anxiety.
