Hi, can anyone recommend the best type of cannabis oil, without naming the brand, for chronic, spinal/ neck pain.

    I don't have any personal recommendations I'm afraid @Posofserend. Have you done your own research, or spoken to any specialists about this?

    Hi @Posofserend - if you're referring to cannabidiol (CBD) oil, I personally use this, which contains CBDa which helps with pain: https://www.simply-cbd.co.uk/products/green-cbd-oil?variant=37927970963639  &, if you scroll down & click on the tab, 'How to Use,' you will see how this ethical company recommends to start taking this. You place the drops under your tongue, then swallow a couple of minutes later. The only caveat is that CBD is broken down by the same liver enzymes that break down over 95% of prescribed meds, so you should discuss this with your pharmacist/GP prior to taking this. If you do take such meds, then for safety, a 4 hour gap is recommended between taking these & CBD.

    Many thanks. I avoid pharmaceutical painkillers and won't take spinal injections, which have been offered.
