How effective is weed extract/oil at killing low back pain?
Anybody have any experience with it? I've been slouching with my workouts (pun intended), so I'm recommitting to strengthening my core. But I'm tired of the daily naproxen/tramadol combo with the occasional Norco thrown in when things get really painful. From what little I've heard, the oil does work, but I don't know anyone personally who has used it and my current physician's practice isn't going to give me good info.
TIA.
TIA.

Why mess around with the oil that only targets a select area? Smoke it and the whole body wins!!!

That's fine for certain times of the week/end, but I don't enjoy being stoned 24/7.

You're doing it wrong.

I didn't make my money being drunk all the time, I'm sure as hell not going to change things just because I get a hall pass for legal weed.

Who's talking about being drunk all the time?

The point is, just because I can, doesn't mean I want to. I don't have any desire to be stoned all the time, and from that comment you inferred I was doing it wrong. I don't like working with any kind of a buzz on. I enjoy saving that for play time after work, weekends, vacations, etc.

I inferred nothing. I straight up said that you're doing it wrong.
To answer the question in the OP, weed is great for lower back pain. I don't know about any kind of topical bullshit, but smoke a bowl or hit a vape a few times and you'll be good to go. I have a VaporBlunt 2.0, and that shit is legit. And, on the real, vaporizing is a different kind of thing than smoking. More functional, I'd say. You owe it to yourself to try it on your free time and see if you can function how you need to at work or whatever the fuck you're on about.

I've never really noticed much pain killing benefits from weed. The majority probably disagree with me. Never tried topicals or anything, though, either.

I have a few friends who have their cards for back or shoulder problems and I've been surprised by how little they know about topicals. I'll be in Colorado in late spring when there's a NORML conference going on and I'll pop in and ask some people there.
