Not looking to get high or have the munchies. ","slug":"does-cbd-work-for-back-pain-not-looking-to-get-high-or-have-the-munchies","content":"\n_____________________\nHello! CBD can be beneficial for pain. If you are interested in non-psychoactive products that have little interference with the appetite, I would recommend a higher CBD combined with a lower THC in the ratio of 20:1. You can use this in a variety of methods including vaporizing, under-the-tongue sprays or drops and topically on the skin at the site of pain. If this doesn't help much with your pain, or if you notice other symptoms such as fever, numbness, or loss of bladder control, you may need to consult a physician for a more detailed evaluation. Best of luck!\n\ndrjacquelynlew\n_____________________\n Hey! \nCannabidiol aka CBD is used by many who suffer from  back pain including me. I suggest you CBD Infused topical creams and CBD  oil for pain management. \nCBD has anti-inflammatory properties that help  in the reduction of pain. As I mentioned before I suffer from a  backache and the most suitable option for me is CBD pain cream. Hope  this helps! \n\n\n\nsebastianwross","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9013-markdown","title":"What is best for chronic low back pain?

Here is an article we published about cannabis topicals for arthritis to get you started. Topicals (creams, salves or balms) could be a good way for you to get targeted relief. You can also try other consumption methods such as vaping, smoking, sublinguals (sprays or oils) or even edibles. It takes a little experimentation to see what works best for you, as everyone reacts to cannabis differently. If you have any additional questions, please let us know. \n\ngabriella\n_____________________\nReducing the discomfort of chronic pain generally requires also addressing the mental and emotional response to the pain signals coming from the chronically inflamed areas, and medicinal cannabis may be useful in just that way.  There is also some laboratory evidence that the endocannabinoid system may directly influence the autoimmune inflammatory process in RA, and some evidence that CBD is an important part of that activity.  I suggest trying whole plant preparations that are rich in CBD. Many patients have to try various preparations and methods of taking cannabis to refine the benefit they receive from it.  If you haven't already acquired the information in this article it may be a helpful 5 minute read.   \n\ndrelkind","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8953-markdown","title":"Can I get this in capsules?

As an 84 year old she suffers from chronic pain and has been addicted to pain killers, in various forms for the past 20 to 30 years. She recently tested postive for THC and her doctors threatened to stop her prescription of oxycoton should she test positive again in 60 days. Reviewing Wisconsin Act 4 (http://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2017/related/proposals/sb10) it seems she could be a MMJ patient (CBD oil usage) but I'm curious whether or not the provisions would allow HelloMD to assist her or make a referral?\"\n_____________________\nHi there! HelloMD's practitioners are licensed in New York or California, and as such, are not permitted to consult with patients outside of their state of licensure. The good news is that any physician with an active Wisconsin medical license may write a recommendation for the possession and use of CBD for a Wisconsin-based patient.

He says it's just his left side, and it feels like burning pins and needles. He did see the doctor, and the doctor said he has nerve damage similar to neuropathy, but aren't sure what the cause is. They suggested he try cannabis! He has tried the Lord Jones High CBD lotion but has not gotten relief. \n\nWe are wondering if maybe a tincture will help? What dosage might be beneficial for him? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!\"\n_____________________\nHi there! I'm sorry to hear your relative is struggling with this uncomfortable condition. Happily, cannabis does provide relief for many people with this issue. Please check out these search results on the topic which should provide plenty of information for you:\n\nashleigh\n_____________________\nApplying cannabis to the skin will not provide significant absorption beyond a very local area so I would definitely try a tincture or similar preparation.  When tinctures or lozenges are held in the mouth effects may be noticeable within 10 minutes; when cannabis is swallowed it may take up to an hour for effects.  Starting with a CBD:THC ratio of 20:1 and varying the amount taken and the cannabinoid ratio (moving toward 1:1) may yield a preparation helpful in reducing the discomfort.  Most patients find this kind of cautious experimentation useful for finding the best relief of their symptoms.  \n\ndrelkind\n_____________________\nI agree with Dr. Elkind that a tincture containing both CBD and THC (for the entourage effect) would be a good choice.  I also agree that for some patients, a traditional cream/emollient/oil may only have limited penetration into the skin. However, I might suggest another alternative.  Companies like OMremedies.com & MakingYouBetterBrand.com have cannabis infused epsom salts (epsom salts being composed of magnesium salt which is important for nerve conduction). If you put a very small/fractional dose in warm (not steaming hot) water and see if the extremities can tolerate a dunk/bath for a short duration, this may be useful. In my experience a good deal of the limited medical literature concerning cannabinoids and neuropathic pain seem to use THC in the experiments (however an admixture of THC and CBD should also do well). I hope this helps please let us know what happens!\n\ndrpark","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8943-markdown","title":"Even though legal medical marijuana is available in Florida, it is not yet being sold.
