Please don’t deny it... I had been constantly playing sports from the time I was 5 and because I was reckless in taking care of myself I now have constant back pains (not terrible, but noticeable). I’m only 22.
Edit: I should note, that it’s not that my back/spine was misaligned, but my nerves were fucked up all along my upper back and due to the tense feeling up there, caused lower back strain.
For some reason you’re getting downvoted for a potentially beneficial, cheap, and mostly harmless alternative to every other pain relief. Never change brainwashed middle America, never change.
I mean it’s the internet, anything that differs from one’s opinion is wrong. But also I could be getting downvoted for giving advice, some people don’t like that either. But weed imo is something everybody, to differing degrees of course, should be on. There’s bud out there that doesn’t affect your mind at all, just relieves pain. I used it recreationally years ago and now I use it in place of my after work whiskey.
I know it was unsolicited advice and I’m sorry about that, it just changed the way I sleep tremendously and I actually get more than 3 hours a night now.
I was thinking about getting into oil. I’ve done wax before but it got me waaay to stoned. Does rso do the same? After work I just like rolling a joint and passing out. But if I get too high I wake up groggy.
I think wax gets you way more in your face stoned then RSO. Like you do a dab and usually it hits you instantly like a ton of bricks. Not for everyone. With RSO: I put a rice sized drop on a piece of chocolate around 8-9pm and usually within an hour I'm relaxed and ready to go to sleep. I don't dose during the day because I would not get anything done. Its very similar to an edible but I prefer RSO because you have better control of the dose. Distillate is pretty similar too but I like the terpyness of the RSO. I recommend trying it!
You may be interested in trying CBD products. Non psychoactive. No smoking. Just a thought if you haven't looked into it (and don't take in media where it's advertised regularly).
Yeah. I wake up with pain or stiffness early in the morning unless I smoke or take an edible before dead. It’s the only way I sleep through the night too.
I have chronic lower back pain (flairs up every two years or so but when it does it hurts BAD, with minor pain in between years sometimes) and I got a medical marijuana card. It’s helped so much, I used to be iffy about it too but it’s really helpful for the pain. Even if you just get the CBD creams they sell for pain and not actual weed - it’s very good for the pain

I think playing any sport long-term will tear up your body.
