I have been using on my knee this week, seems to help the inflammation.
I was just talking to a friend about this. I think I need to order the cbd topical that we were discussing and try it out.

I haven’t tried the hemp cream but I have some hemp soap. Idk if it’s from cannabis tho.
I haven’t noticed any difference yet when I use it. Maybe need to use it every shower instead of my other soaps.
That’s interesting! I haven’t tried hemp, but I do use a cbd cream + a cbd vape pen and it seems to help, just doesnt last very long.

I’ve been using a CBD Topical relief cream that does help to some degree. The most relief I get is in using a 1:1 whole plant extract (CBD and THC) tincture. There isn’t enough THC in it to get you high but the whole plant does work. The Plaquenil that the Rheumy put me on works to bring the pain level from an 8 down to a 3-4 level. I use the tincture to knock it down to a 1-2 level for the 4-6 hours of relief that I get. You can tell when it wears off though. I have tried straight CBD but it barely worked for me.

I was just wondering about this. I have a sample that a friend gave me. Like @tamac, it seems to help for a short time. And, the peppermint smell is lovely.
I think it’s probably worth it to me to handle my embarrassment about going into a cannabis pharmacy to get more. We have so many here, since it is legal, that I’m just not sure which one to go to.

To be precise, my sample is Hemp CBD cream. I still can’t sit for very long without pain on movement.
I think the jury is in on the hemp cream. I have been using it on my knees which patella tendon stays inflamed. The first cream I tried also had menthol in it and it seems to work well. I am now trying some that has the max amount of the hemp oil (not THC) and is in a beeswax base without the menthol. It seems to help.
Your mileage may vary.
