No Doctor but a witch doctor would tell you to ingest smoke in your lungs! Do gummies if you must but never smoke!

Hi, I was just viewing comments and came upon ? Art515 And YES, I have been a MEDICAL Patience, With a REAL MEDICAL DOCTOR who i have to updates with during the year... BUT it is IMPORTANT for person to know, I HAVE BENEFITED extremely WELL from BOT FLOWER ( SMOKE ) OR VAPE ( INTENSE SMOKE ) Bcuz I Use Only Liquid, Chewies, Lotions, balms and lovely Oils ( topicals) i waiting 4years b4 i decide to try this path... I have my best friend, who has EVERYTHING, CANCER, CELLULITIS, RA, etc, so so much... and all she kept telling me, Just Try Medical, it has CHANGED my LIFE... but I kept WAITING for all these New & Improved Treatments ( yea, but out of the first numbers of injections, infusion, Steroids etc. I Couldn't tell you all that was entered my Poor, Sorry Body , all the hair falling out, the thick plaques from my head to my toes, Couldn't WaLk without exhausting pain, Finally I thought, WHY Not, don't like it, Leave it. NO Sweat.. I had Been doing & trying Everything my Doctors were telling me to do, I was Even on a STUDY at the same time... Yes it was time, ... Since I started MEDICAL ,I there were Counselors and a Nurse practitioner and informed Staff there FOR ME, ANY TIME, SO I told this one Staff Member ,Ida, what I was dealing with, The next day , Ida had a Workup on what she thought was a good fit for me to start out with... she explained the difference between FLOWER 🌼 & Edibles, a difference but amazing outcome for me... CBD was the go tofor certain ailments.../ But she had a New and Better combination, that would Help MY issues better... it was CBG/THC 1:1 ...So it began and you heard the expression " wish i had done this Years AGO," & buddies, i wish i had...We are Willing to try all these suggestions, some never heard of treatments, by willing to at least Investigate. Anyone can do the same with a treatment that has been ard from the Beginning of existence...I am just writing about My experiences, my treatments thru my life... And the best one so far for anxiety, depression, and OH Yea P.A.I.N, has been Medical Marijuana plus terpense.. Look it up, it won't bite, unless you want it to bite...Its just another Option To Investigate, if one wants to relieve chronic pain, where nothing else has helped.. It is there with helpful assistance one only has to ask... FIRST THING I LEARN b4 Ingesting, most Important, Go Low, GO Slow... Meaning, one works with Medical only by starting very low in dose, and go very Slow 🐌 u feel it out and LEARN SOMETHING I believe a NEW & IMPROVED HELP FOR PsA, & so many other pain related issues... its a wonderful feeling after years & years of constant chronic pain, lessing of pain, more movement, my Lord, I Could cut my sandwich, I could open my bedroom door, I could drive without My Shoulder screaming in pain. I was about to be able NOT TO DRIVE.. NO WAY, NO WAY. I found a Way .. thank you

I'd have the concern that it may alter ones perception of things like pain sensation otherwise. And then while you're on it somebody might not realize they applied too much force or effort and feel it when that wears off. That's just the way I would think about that though. Unless somebody doesn't exert themself any during use? But just like anything you inhale it can be damaging later on possibly to your respiratory system at the very least. Long-term effects later?

Does smoking or using cannabis products help with psoriasis symptoms?

Some MyPsoriasisTeam members have experimented with cannabis products for their psoriasis, with mixed results. One member shared they apply a cannabis salve whenever finding a new spot, while another found that using the right dose and strain was effective for managing increased pain levels.

However, it's important to know that the safety and effectiveness of cannabis products for psoriasis isn't clear. Research on cannabis for psoriasis is still limited, and these products aren't proven treatments.

Before trying cannabis or any alternative therapy, you should talk with your dermatologist. They can help you understand:

* Potential risks and side effects
* Possible interactions with your current treatments
* Whether it might be appropriate for your specific situation

Alternative treatments might provide some symptom relief, but they can also carry risks of harmful side effects or interfere with your prescribed medications. Your doctor can help you make an informed decision based on your individual health needs.
