Choosing a CBD Pain Cream

For the millions of Americans struggling with chronic pain caused by back issues, arthritis and more, a little help can go a long way. Fortunately, cbd pain cream oil is proving to be a helpful treatment option for those seeking an alternative to over-the-counter and prescription medications that come with a host of side effects (think antidepressants, antiseizure drugs and opiates).

As an analgesic, CBD is thought to stimulate the endocannabinoid system, helping to relieve discomfort by directly targeting the source of pain and stiffness. Topical creams and salves allow CBD to be absorbed through the skin, providing direct relief to the affected area.

CBD can interact with certain medications that are metabolized by the liver, so it’s important to consult your doctor before starting any new supplement. This is especially true for those taking blood thinners, seizure medications or any other medication that comes with a “grapefruit” warning.
