I've been suffering with back pain for almost 3 months now and can't sleep properly at night. I already have a prescription meds but I refrain on using them coz it only take the pain for a minute or so and back again. Then one of my friends gave me a joint to try if it makes me feel better and it does! I try asking him what it is but he has no idea also. So I started doing my own research about medical marijuana and strains that would be effective against pain and came across this http://www.ilovegrowingmarijuana.com/blueberry/.
I'm not sure if that's the strain that I've tried but it has the highest pain management effect. Cbd and thc are all new to me. I also read that drinking it as tea or as a muffin/cake is an option, but is relief effects the same? Why can't they simply make pills out of marijuana - or maybe there are that I am not aware of. If it's true, then I would very much appreciate any ideas and advice on what strain is good and how to use it medically. Thanks in advance to those who'll answer.
Indica strains are known for the muscle relaxtion affect.
Sativa for their psycho active compounds..
What helped for me was working out... You need to get your back muscles strong again... If its possible to do a little work out of course.
Good luck

I've been using cannabis since 1962 and have chronic pain since I broke my back in 1985. I've had about every strain known to man and not one has had the slightest effect on my pain. If anything, it makes it worse because it makes me think and focus on how bad it hurts. This is not to say that I don't still enjoy marijuana...I'll smoke till the day I die, but I'm not going to pretend that I smoke it for anything besides the enjoyment of smoking it.

Amen I been strugglin with back problems my whole life..
And smoking weed indeed wasn't a remedy. And I am pro-canna fan. Like i said. What worked for me..Was working out. And proper shoes. Pretty logic if a building has a bad foundation/shoes. It stand less stronger. But like you said thinking about it can make it worse. You go stressing. And your body will folow.
Goodluck!

Thank you my friend! When I broke my back (it was pretty bad, I fell 25 feet off a bridge onto boulders) the doctor said it would throw everything else out of whack. He said I'd be in a wheelchair in 5-10 years (so far, so good). The only thing that works for me is opioids...I hate it but my body is ate up with arthritis now too. Without them the pain is so bad I can't get out of bed.
