CBD has been used for centuries to help with all types of pain, but recently researchers have started to study it again.
Here are some of the benefits associated with CBD oil:
Arthritis Pain
A study was done on an animal subject to determine if CBD could help those with arthritis get their pain under control. Rats with arthritis had a topical gel containing CBD applied and left on for 4 days. Researchers noted there was an immense reduction in the amount of pain and inflammation present. They also noted that there were no side effects associated with the use of this gel. It is possible that humans with arthritis will have the same results when using CBD oil, but more human studies will have to be done on humans before this can be confirmed.
Multiple Sclerosis
MS is an autoimmune disease of the nerves and brain, but it can have negative effects on numerous parts of the body. One of the most common symptoms of this condition is muscle spasms. In some people, the spasms are so strong that they lead to chronic pain
One study reports that using CBD oil on a short term basis can reduce the number of spasms a person experiences. While the results were on the modest side, there are many who reported a decrease in their symptoms. In order to verify these results, more human studies will have to be conducted.
Chronic Pain
CBD can be useful for those who have general chronic pain. After compiling the results from numerous studies, trials and reviews, it has been determined that CBD can reduce inflammation and pain.
In addition, those who take CBD will not become immune to it over time, meaning the dosage will not need to be increased.
Dosage
There are no FDA regulations in place when it comes to using CBD. As a result, dosages can vary from person to person and precautions will need to be taken.
Anyone who would like to try CBD to see if it is helpful should discuss it with a physician. They can help determine if this is a wise decision and how much would be a proper dosage.
