Is weed good for arthritis?

My sister told me that some people use weed to manage their arthritis pain. My joints ache all the time, especially in the winter. Is weed actually good for arthritis, or is it just a temporary fix?

Beta, arthritis needs gentle care, not these modern intoxicants. Try massaging the painful joints with lukewarm sesame oil or a paste of ginger and turmeric. If the pain is too severe, always consult a proper Ayurvedic or allopathic doctor.

Arey bhaiya, humare yahan toh log kehte hain ki yeh sab nasha sharir ko aur kamzor karta hai. Warm water bottle se sek lijiye, usse bahut aaram milta hai joint pain mein. Dr. sahab ko dikha lijiye ek baar.

It might temporarily dull the pain, but it doesn't cure arthritis. Please consult a specialist.

Please be very careful. My neighbor tried using unauthorized oils and substances for his knee arthritis, which caused a severe skin reaction and delayed his actual medical treatment. Go to a proper clinic and get scientifically proven medications.

My father went to Apollo Hospital for his arthritis treatment, and the doctor explicitly told us that unprescribed substances have no proven benefit for joint degeneration. Please ask your rheumatologist clearly before trying anything like this.

Haan na, instead of trying these risky things, simple knee exercises and hot water bag works best. It is better not to experiment with your health when you have severe pain, na?

I worry so much about chronic joint pain, and I read online that some people use it, but then I also read about side effects like memory issues and high heart rate! It makes me too anxious. It is probably much safer to just stick to what the orthopedist prescribes.
