How CBD Oil Works For Pain

CBD oil is a derivative of the hemp plant and has no THC in it that would get a person high. The CBD, when ingested, attaches itself to the pain receptors in the body and reduces or eliminates pain.

Many people suffer from painful conditions and doctors prescribe pharmaceuticals to deal with the pain. From high doses of ibuprofen and acetaminophen to addictive pain medications such as oxycontin, percoset, and hydrocodone, people are taking pain medications that can be addictive and have serious side effects.

Since CBD oil works with the receptors in the body naturally, there are no known side effects. In fact, CBD oil can often treat the side effects from other medications.

Painful conditions such as arthritis, chronic regional pain syndrome or reflex sympathetic dystrophy, injuries, and other medical conditions that may cause pain all appear to respond well to CBD oil as a pain medication.

For patients who don’t want to take harsh or addictive pain medications CBD oil is an ideal alternative. CBD oil also works on the pain neurons in the brain and helps the patient to feel less pain and gain more motion when muscles are sore and achy.

CBD oil doesn’t require a prescription and it’s legal in all 50 states. For this reason, more people are trying it than ever before. It can literally save thousands of doctors visits and prescription costs.

Depending on the method in which CBD is taken, it can take from a few minutes (oil that is taken sublingually) to an hour or two (for CBD oil that is ingested with food) to take effect.  When it goes in sublingually (underneath of the tongue) it immediately hits the bloodstream and takes effect faster.

When it’s ingested via food, it has to go through the digestive system and will take up to 2 hours to take full effect. Many people misunderstand this and take more and more not realizing that it is simply working its way through the digestive system. Taking more isn’t harmful and won’t have any ill side effects, it’s just using the supply up more quickly than is necessary.

CBD Oil also works on the inflammation that many conditions such as arthritis and other pain conditions may include. By reducing the inflammation, it helps to lower the pain level and ultimately gives the user pain relief as well.

Since CBD works on so many different conditions, it’s almost a miracle drug. It can help to reduce pain in injuries and other conditions and it’s readily available at a fraction of the cost of other pain medications.

As it attaches to the pain receptors in the brain and body it gets to work reducing pain and inflammation and offering relief to the millions who rely on it for pain relief.

It can be found in gummies, oil, and other edible forms as well as tea and other herbal beverages. Legal in all 50 states everyone who uses it has their own personal experience of pain relief.
