Depending on your comfort level, you can use most forms of application like topical balms, edibles, tinctures and even smoking/vaporizing. The compound CBD is a great tool to use when combating nerve related pain and medium to high ratio options (8:1-20:1 CBD:THC) are great places to start to help suppress the amount of euphoria that accompanies THC as a side effect.\nI hope this helps!\n\naaronseda\n_____________________\nThe answer is yes, according to a randomized, double-blinded, placebo controlled crossover study in 16 patients with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy conducted at UCSD.\n\nLow (1% tetrahydrocannabinol, THC), medium (4% THC), or high (7% THC) doses of cannabis were compared w/ placebo. The cannabis was vaporized. There was approximately 400mg of “plant material per administration, dosing therefore was controlled at 0, 4, 16 or 28 mg THC per dosing session.”\n\nhttp://www.cmcr.ucsd.edu/index.php/2015-11-20-20-52-15/completed-studies/26-efficacy-of-inhaled-cannabis-in-diabetic-peripheral-neuropathy\n\ncmce","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":24,"numPages":3,"currentPage":3,"id":5627,"name":"Peripheral Neuropathy","slug":"peripheral-neuropathy","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
