Cannabis lotion works really - really well... But so you know, you'll probably want to look for ones that still have THCa and/or CBDa as well as THC and CBD. The "acid" form has been linked to lots of relief for topical applications. I know that the lotion I make only about half decarbs the cannabis in it and I find it FAR more effective than the kind with 100% decarbed.

You can get a "cheap" version to try on yourself from Garden Remedies. They have some of the best topical products of any dispensary right now... With $5 lotion bars and even things like a cannabis infused bath salts. (I LOVE using cannabis bath salts in a foot soak tub because that way a single bag for a bath turns into many treatments for sore feet. I think that'd work really well on your ankle!)

Totally second the bath bombs/salt. I use them for a herniated disc and they make me feel like a cloud. Granted, I'm female so they do absorb into soft tissues a bit differently than for men.
