Bhai, rheumatoid arthritis causes too much pain, my mother also suffers from it. We never tried cannabis, but simple warm mustard oil massage gives her some relief. Please do not try unknown things without talking to a good doctor first.

RA is an autoimmune condition and can damage your joints permanently if left untreated. I tried delayed treatment and regretted it when my joints stiffened up. Skip these random remedies and see a rheumatologist to start proper medication.

For joint stiffness, gentle movement is actually very helpful to keep the mobility intact. Instead of looking at cannabis, try doing light joint rotations and walking if your doctor permits. Keeping active makes a huge difference in managing RA.

Beta, rheumatoid is a deep-rooted wind disease in our joints. Drinking warm water with ginger and avoiding sour foods like curd helps reduce the swelling. Do not experiment with cannabis; stick to safe, traditional ways and proper doctor's medicines.

Look, RA is not a normal joint pain that you can treat with random herbs. Cannabis won't stop the internal joint damage. Stop looking for shortcuts on the internet and go get your blood tests done at a proper clinic.
