CBD reduces small intestine contractions
16 September 2024CBD bind with the cannabinoid receptors in our bodies. As a result, they reduce the number of inflammatory proteins produced. This reduction in the inflammatory proteins helps suppress the muscle spasm response in people.
Muscle spasms happen when one or more of your muscles contract involuntarily and are not able to relax. These spasms are sudden and can be very painful. As a consequence, they can render those muscles temporarily unusable. With more and more therapeutic uses of medical cannabis being explored every day, people ask, “Can medical cannabis provide relief from such spasms?” And research says yes! The pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory traits of the herb make it the most effective medication for muscle spasms and the associated pain.
It doesn’t matter if you are a great athlete or a slacker. Muscle spasms can affect anyone.
They can be caused by:
- working and exercising in hot environments,
- overuse of muscles in intense activity for a long time,
- stretching the muscles beyond a certain limit,
- muscle fatigue,
- dehydration,
- inadequate stretching before any physical activity,
- excessive weight,
- hormonal imbalance,
- side effects of prescription drugs, etc.
Medical cannabis is helpful in alleviating such pain, muscular inflammation, exercise-induced oxidative stress and lessening inflammation's effect on it. As a result of this, it aids in the recovery of the hampered muscle tissues. Common patients and elite athletes alike have reported a significant reduction in the severity and frequency of their muscle spasms and pain with the consumption of medical cannabis based medication. They also reported a smoother and better muscle function.
In addition to aiding in muscle recovery, which may reduce the frequency and severity of muscle spasms, marijuana can mitigate the pain of muscle overuse and injury during that recovery phase. These pain-relieving properties have been well-documented in medical literature and provide further endorsement for medical marijuana’s use in muscle recovery from both exercise and injury.
Research and studies have made it clear today that medical cannabis can provide remarkable relief from muscle spasms and aid muscle recovery. In addition, it acts as an excellent analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent.
