CBD and Hemp products

I have tried them both, and I have to say that for me, personally it did not work. In fact, about an hour after using CBD and THC products, my joints started to hurt and feel really heavy, so I gave up on it. That being said, I know many people who swear by it and use it to help supplement their pain meds and sleep at night. It really is like most things when it comes to RA, it's going to be a trial and error process based on your specific body and consulting with your medical team. Let us know how it turns out. Keep on keepin' on, DPM

Hi . I can't personally speak on this, but I want to share with you this other Forum discussion titled "What are the pros and cons of using medical marijuana for RA?" https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/forums/medical-marijuana. Also, in this article our patient leader Leanne writes about alternative short-term pain management options, including CBD: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/living/accessible-pain-management. Hope this information is helpful. Best, Richard (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)

I use 50/50 CBD/THC cream. Did before RA on joints. For me, helps on bad joints. Lasts maybe 2-4 hours.
