In contrast, some patches are intended to work by penetrating through the skin and entering the bloodstream, for a general systemic effect rather than a local effect.

CBD Cannabis maybe done in a vape pen for general all over pain and anxiety relief but it may also be done as a suppository you insert in the vagina the night before you expect your cramps for a good night sleep and pain relief. The CBD topical salve at 2:1 Ratio is excellent for pain relief especially if applied to the low back and above the pubic bone and this treatment will not make you high, so you can use the topical salve and even given the car and drive, you can not do that with high THC because of the psychoactive effect.\nTry these techniques, I think you'll be happy you did because cramps are a good thing to be rid of!\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nWomen have used cannabis as a treatment for period cramp pain  since at least as far back as the 19th century, when Sir. J Russel Reynolds would treat  Queen Victoria's period cramps. He duly noted, \"When pure and  administered carefully, cannabis is one of the most valuable medicines  we possess.\"\n\nToday, thousands of women have reported cannabis as  an effective treatment for period cramps. There have been multiple  studies regarding the efficacy of cannabis as an effective analgesic.  However, studies regarding the specific use of cannabis as a treatment  of period cramps is scant.\n\nAlthough, data from a study performed  at the University of Leicesteraimed showed that levels of the endogenous  cannabinoid anandamide (AEA) fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle  and that the cannabinoid rececptors CB1 and CB2 were found throughout  the uterus. These findings suggest that exogenous cannabinoids such as  THC and CBD may interact with the endocannabinoid system resulting in a  reduction in period cramp pain. \nhttps://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00418-010-0695-9.\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nAnother study evaluated levels of endocannabinoids and the  prevalence of CB1 and CB2 receptors according to cycle phase and the  amount of pain reported by women with and without endometriosis. The  researches found a clear relationship between variations in the  endocannabinoid system between women with severe endometrial pain, mild  endometrial pain and women without endometriosis. These findings again  suggest a role of cannabis in modulating period cramp pain.\nhttp://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/1933719116630414\n\nThe following are excellent products to help reduce pain due to dysmenorrhea (period cramp pain) for most patients. Please consult with a qualified medical marijuana physician to help custom tailor an appropriate regimen for your specific needs. \n\nhttps://www.cbd.org/products/cbd-sublingual-spray\nI  recommend the 2:1 spray . Each spray delivers 2.6mg of CBD and 1.3mg of  THC. I recommend sprays because they are easier to use than are oils  and tinctures. For most of my patients, I recommend one to two sprays as  needed, as frequently as every hour.\n\nhttps://www.cbd.org/products/cbd-chocolate\nI recommend the 18:1 bar. Each 1/4 piece contains 20mg CBD and 1.1mg THC. Take 1/4 of the bar as frequently as every two hours.\n\nhttp://dosist.com/pen-relief/\nTake one to three puffs as frequently as every two hours.\n\ndrkim","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9983-markdown","title":"I have diabetic nerve pain in my feet and hands is there anywhere in Oklahoma to get the patches  recommended?","slug":"i-have-diabetic-nerve-pain-in-my-feet-and-hands-is-there-anywhere-in-oklahoma-to-get-the-patches-recommended","content":"","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9974-markdown","title":"What does the community suggest for lower back and hip pain?","slug":"what-does-the-community-suggest-for-lower-back-and-hip-pain","content":"\n_____________________\nCannabis! \nReally, it depends on how you want to administer your cannabis and what you want from your cannabis. \nIf you're ready to jump in the car and drive, you know you can't be high so you want to go with the cannabis that will give you pain relief and not make you high, so that might be a topical CBD dominant salve because you won't be high but you will have excellent relief of pain for approximately 4 to 6 hours.\nIf you're home from work but you're not ready to be couch locked with an Indica, consider a four-part CBD to one part THC in an oral spray you can put under your tongue and you should be able to have a relaxing evening with the family and friends and you can even cook a nice meal.\nYou can vaporize a high CBD like AC/DC, 30 parts CBD to 9 parts THC, will typically get you out of pain in about 10 minutes with a mild relaxing psychoactive affect.\nAbout one hour before you want to go to bed you may want to vaporize a 1:1, CBD: THC to help you slide into sleep and it's nice to have the 1:1 next to your bed in case you wake up in the night.\nIn addition, I recognize that most people are vitamin D3 deficient and your body can't call you on the telephone to say, \"What happen to the vitamin D?\" So please be certain that you're vitamin D3 intake is adequate to relieve your back and hip pain and that usually requires your blood level to be between 55 ng/ml - 95ng/ml for optimum pain relief.\nHydration is extremely important because your low back and hip pain may be originating in your spine and the spine is very sensitive to dehydration, so please always be certain you are hydrated.\nStretching, walking and posture is also another factor that must be addressed.\nThe body likes to be healthy and well and wants to be healthy and well so if your body is talking to you, please, try to understand the signals your body is giving you and you will be much happier in your body.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9965-markdown","title":"How can I find a Pain Management Doctor who will permit cannabis use close to Prescott, AZ","slug":"how-can-i-find-a-pain-management-doctor-who-will-permit-cannabis-use-close-to-prescott-az","content":"\"?\"\n_____________________\nHi there! \n\nPlease try visiting this website to see if you can find a physician in your area that will issued you a medical marijuana card: https://www.marijuanadoctors.com/medical-marijuana-doctors/az/ \n\nI hope this information helps! :-) \n\nVeronicaB","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9964-markdown","title":"How do I get a medical marijuana recommendation in Arizona?","slug":"how-do-i-get-a-medical-marijuana-recommendation-in-arizona","content":"\n_____________________\nHere is the AZ Department of Health website, which has a lot of information about how the program works:  http://www.azdhs.gov/licensing/medical-marijuana/index.php\nAfter a google search, it does look as though there are a number of websites that can direct you to certifying physicians as well.\n\ndrbultman\n_____________________\nI cannot give you a recommendation for a doctor in Phoenix but a dispensary may be able to tell you a physician who can help you.\nI am a physician with a long history of helping people utilize cannabis for their medical challenges.\nThe first issue is CBD's take time to help and many people will take one or two doses or even a weeks worth and said it didn't help but it may be that you are not absorbing the medication if you're taking it orally. I usually encourage patients try vaporizing CBD's to see that they do help because vaporizing is much faster, the medication is in your blood stream in approximately 1 to 2 minutes and you start feeling benefit in approximately 10 minutes. You did not mention what your problem is so I cannot address your specific issue with a treatment plan. CBD's will help you but it is a matter of plugging them in at the right time in your treatment plan for optimal results. If you are utilizing Indica for sleep you can use CBDs during the day, like 18:1 CBD dominant vape pen because that will not have a psychoactive effect But if you are using Sativa during the day you should follow that, one hour before you want to go to sleep with high CBD, making a very powerful Indica inside your body facilitating restorative sleep and you will wake refreshed.  In one month you will notice and improvement but in two months you likely will experience a significant improvement in your health.\nConsider trying my suggestions and see that CBDs can help you.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9954-markdown","title":"What is best naturally-derived tetrahydrocannabinols (THC) for my back pain.","slug":"what-is-best-naturally-derived-tetrahydrocannabinols-thc-for-my-back-pain","content":"\"The naturally0derived THC that does not need a prescription.\"\n_____________________\nThe THC molecule is the same, no matter what product it is in. Naturally derived THC comes from the cannabis plant. If there is more than 0.3% THC in a product, it must be obtained in a state with legal medical cannabis. There are no prescriptions but depending on where you live, you might need a medical recommendation. There is a prescription, dronabinol, that contains a THC made in the laboratory. It is available in every state but the effect is not the same as THC in the plant. It is mainly used for pain relief, anti-nausea, and it stimulates the appetite. It is not covered by insurance unless you are on chemotherapy or have AIDS.  Products that contain CBD with less than 0.3% THC can be used in almost any state. The exceptions are Kansas, Nebraska, and Idaho. \n\ndrfrye","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9950-markdown","title":"I started using CBD oil for chronic pain.

I really want to not have to take opiates. Thank you! \n\"\n_____________________\nChronic pain is one of the most common reasons that people use cannabis. Most of the time a combination of CBD with THC has been found to be most effective. The entourage effect of both of the cannabinoids working together seems to give the best relief. The CBD alone may help with inflammation but adding some THC and slowly increasing the amount to get the desired pain relief would be the best way to go. There are different ratios of CBD:THC that are available either as a tincture or vape cartridge that can help with pain. Some are marketed and label specifically for chronic pain but you need start with a low amount and again, slowly increase since everyone reacts differently.\n\nPerry Solomon, MD\n_____________________\nHave you ever felt sick to your stomach after taking CBD oil? \n\n\n\namanda0115","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9948-markdown","title":"Can medical marijuana help calm sciatic nerve pain?","slug":"can-medical-marijuana-help-calm-sciatic-nerve-pain","content":"\n_____________________\nYes, medical marijuana can be an effective treatment for chronic pain, including sciatic nerve pain.\n\ndrbultman","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9939-markdown","title":"I have arthritis in my back is there a topical ointment I can use to relieve pain","slug":"i-have-arthritis-in-my-back-is-there-a-topical-ointment-i-can-use-to-relieve-pain","content":"\n_____________________\nHey there, \n\nI'm sorry to hear you have pain in your back!
