CANNABIS PRESCRIPTIONS FOR MUSCLE SPASMS

Muscle spasms can be a symptom of a neurological disorder such as ALS, or they can be the result of physical pain and inflammation. Either way, marijuana can have a relaxing or calming effect on patients, which can in turn help to reduce the number of muscle spasms they experience. Spasms can last anywhere from a few seconds to a few hours in some cases, and range on the pain scale from uncomfortable to extremely so.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Medical marijuana treats muscle spasms by reducing inflammation in the body. It also affects the network of cell receptors throughout your body that deal with pain. By binding to these receptors, cannabis prevents the body from responding to inflammation, and in turn producing muscle spasms. 

As marijuana use becomes more accepted by the general public, more and more research will be done in these areas to discover more possible health benefits. The team of marijuana doctors at Adult Health DNP can help you find the right strain to treat your muscle spasms, no matter their cause. We believe in personalized care with empathy and integrity.
