It definitely helps me with mine. Also I have a shooting pain that zaps me from the hip socket on the left leg down the back of my leg and into my foot sometimes when I take a step and when I'm in the process of sitting or standing (when I'm performing the movement of standing or sitting, not once I'm actually in position). This comes and goes very unpredictably, but if it is flaring up smoking some ganj gets rid of it every time.

Try looking in my list (links below). You will find dozens of studies on pain and cannabis. It can even help with neuropathic pain, which is harder to treat than "injury" pain. Go for it, hon!

I had better luck with edibles. It took about 6 months before it really started kicking in where my tolerance was high enough that I wouldn't be taking a nap after eating a couple brownies.
