I have had Osgood-Schlatter Disease since I was 13 years old. For those of you who do not know what Osgood-Schlatter Disease is, it is an overuse condition or injury of the knee that causes pain and swelling below the knee area over the shin bone. It is mainly caused through growing pains, however, at 18 years old I don't think it has resulted through growing. I am very active (this is what i think contributes to it the most), I skateboard almost every day as well as work out (my legs especially). The pain is very excruciating when just walking, not to mention skating, working out, and golfing. The doctor recommended standard things such as Advil, tylenol etc...but it has never worked. I have informed my doctor of this many times, but every time she says to just keep taking the Advil. I really feel that cannabis can help with the pain in my knee and was wondering how, if possible, I could get a cannabis card. I feel that if I consult my doctor with this idea she will blow me off and say no so I don't want to go to her with the situation. She is a great doctor overall...I just know that she will not be open to the idea of using cannabis as a method of pain relief. Any help is greatly appreciated.
