Is marijuana good for the pain from Arthritis or Bursitis? It would be for my mom, so I'd like more info than "its good for anything that ails ya." thanks
Yes, it is sir. Here's a page with all the uses: http://www.jackherer.com/chapter07.html About 2/5 of the way down is the Arthritis etc section
Im new to marijuana and dont know too much about it,does anyone know if smoking it would help aid the severe pain of arthritis,i had a look at the site posted above but couldnt find too much there,im not too keen to eat it but i wondered if smoking would ease the pain as much as eating it would. Sorry for the questions. Upsetter.
both THC and CBD have pain killing effects. your going to want to find some weed with a high THC content...dank, headies ect. CBD, which is usually found in higher quantities in indicas, causes weeds sedative effects. so for your arthritis i would recommend some dank indica nugs. smoking will produce pain relieving effects. eating will just make the effects last longer.
Totally agree with you there. Indica would be the way to go. And if you have some coin, and she is open to the idea, without question, invest in a Volcano Vaporizor. maybe give it to her as a gift, but it is the most healthy way to injest cannabis. The Volcano is the most expensive & most effective way to injest because there are 0.0 carsinogens entering the lungs. It is also an incredible tool to conserve green. 1g can last a respectable toker about an hour on that machine and after they finish, if one wanted to, one could use the leftover green (now brown) in cooking. I can't believe it's butter! now go bake your mom some cookies with the butter you created.
Good advice all, as I learned on my first grow though, even Indica isn't very sedative if it's harvested too early. Early harvest gives great head stone, late harvest on the other hand takes the pain and sets it off over there to await the moment one runs out of pot!
