Does Marijuana take away all of your pain?

It works wonders for my condition (Boils), it doesnt take all the pain away like vicodin does, but it takes my mind off of it while taking about half the pain away while being alot safer and giving me a slight buzz.....MJ gets my vote friend:thumbsup:

Oh it definitely helps. I don't think I could tolerate this much pain, and exercise 2/3 to my capacity with it.

But thank you my friend. I been afraid to work on my core because I didn't want to aggravate anything. It's been hard because that's my favorite part to work out!

If it can activate one of the most numerous receptors in the nervous system, most pain (physical or mental) should be affected, if not healed, as long as it's Sativa. Indica will only activate the ones in your immune system.

*I believe*

I have Fibromyalgia and IBS, I can tell you, it helps with 75% of my pain, so as long as I'm only feeling a bit of pain, I can do great. I love it.

just make brownies and eat alot of them then u wont feel anything

I learned a rather interesting fact doing some research a while ago; apparently cannabinoids and opiates potentiate each other's analgesic effects.

I sometimes get migraines. If sometimes I smoke with a migraine it will get worse. Sometimes bud intensifies my headaches also.

Make sure you're smoking the right strain for a headache, and not too much weed. Usually i notice smoking a lot of certain sativas gives me a headache.

Spark it up! :stoned:

Can I ask you a question? While my nerve pain is not related to my back, but to the left area of my rib. Recently I started working-out again, and while the pain has dulled, it seemed to have spread to my lower back at times. Sometimes I feel a shooting pain on the lower left side of my back. What causes nerve pain to spread?

---

Basically, because a lot of nerves are connected whether because they branch off from one another or they make connections at other points. It is know as referred pain. Again this is a really basic explanation and it is more complicated than that but without knowing exactly where you are hurting, this is the probably best explanation for your problems, not because of muscle tension.

Actually, aspirin is an anti-inflammatory drug, the first one in fact. Tylenol (acetaminophen, APAP, paracetamol) has very little if any anti-inflammtory properties though.

I have a back promblem that only meds can help, smoking weed has never taken away
the pain
