Cannabis

Cannabis, also [controvers­ially] called "marijuana", or "weed", as a medication for the relief and management of pain and inflammation related symptoms. Available in topical, smokable, and edible forms. Best in combination, but individually, topical is best for immediate targeted relief of joint and nerve pain, smokable is best for broader muscle pain, and edible is best for general internal pain. Anecdotally, full spectrum products are more effective than individual compound concentrates for long-term efficacy.
