CANNABIS HELPS WITH BACK PAIN.

Updated: Apr 15, 2023

Chronic back pain? Hurts to bend over or pick something up? The plant of the God's may be exactly what you need.


THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is one of the main compounds found in cannabis that is responsible for its psychoactive effects. Studies have shown that THC may be effective in reducing chronic pain, including back pain.


One study published in the European Journal of Pain found that a cannabis-based medicine containing both THC and CBD (cannabidiol) was effective in reducing chronic lower back pain. The study participants reported a significant reduction in pain intensity and an improvement in their quality of life.


Another study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology found that patients with chronic back pain who were treated with a cannabis-based medicine containing THC reported a significant reduction in pain, as well as improvements in sleep quality and overall quality of life.

It is important to note that while THC may be effective in reducing chronic pain, including back pain, more research is needed to fully understand the short-term and long-term effects of THC on back pain. Additionally, the use of THC can have side effects and can interact with other medications, so it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before using THC or any cannabis-based products.


In conclusion, studies have shown that THC may be effective in reducing chronic pain, including back pain. However, more research is needed to fully understand the short-term and long-term effects of THC on back pain, and it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before using THC or any cannabis-based products.
