hi people! i'm suffering from arthritis for over a month now. i have tried all sorts of creams and ointments not to mention the tablets that i've been taking but none of them seemed to work and i think it's getting worse. i couldn't bare the pain. i wonder if i could use marijuana for the pain. has anyone tried it?

as a sufferer of arthritis myself, marijuana gives me the relief from pain. it does really work but it doesn't cure. my friend has rheumatoid arthritis, couple of hits makes her feel good. so i say it's the best pain reliever.

yes it does not cure but it certainly helps. i have knee problems, smoking marijuana relieves all after a long stressful day. It does seem to help the arthritis by smoking.

there are different benefits of marijuana usage. such as marijuana chronic smoker were less risk of cancer than normal tabacco smoker. and i read that marijuana itself contain chemical that good for anti depressant and pain killer.

I agree with you! as the debates continue I don't think that it was really proven that marijuana helps arthritis patient. Thought there are people who says that they are cured but some don't.

really? is it scientifically proven? or psychologically effect only? i don't think it can cure or even pain reliever.

I agree with marijuana as painkiller but to cure arthritis? I won't go beyond on it. I am not sure if it was proven that medical cannabis can cure arthritis.

II have been using it for psoriatic arthritis--if you don't know, it is common amongst people with HIV. Psoriasis is thougth of as a non-contagious skin disorder. Without HIV, it rarely turns iinto arthritis. One is genetically disposed to arthriitis and psoriasis both. It sucks! Anyway by the time that it has evolved into the dual exhaust of psoriatic arthritis, the pain factor, without assisstance is nearly unbearable. However, with Med, Marij, life has crept back. Nice!
Sincerely,

CWS

i'm not sure if it will treat arthritis, but yes it works well as a painkiller. you should injest it for best pain relief.
