My mother is in her late 60s.
Although she remains fit, fresh & independent, she suffers from stiffness & pain in her hips.
Her joints are especially a problem. She occasionally has trouble going up the stairs, getting into the truck or climbing into the bathtub. She’s been to the nurse several times & been prescribed several medications. These pharmaceuticals include all sorts of harmful side-effects. It doesn’t seem like the nurses are entirely great about the dosage or even the category of medications they prescribe. My mother became upset & quit taking her medicine. While I understood her decision, I was worried about her mobility deteriorating. I recommended that the two of us make a trip to a recreational cannabis dispensary & look into possibilities. At first, my mother refused to even consider the thought. She grew up while I was in a time when there was a large stigma surrounding marijuana. I didn’t supply up. I shared information with my mother proving the many pros of cannabis as a medicinal remedy. I explained that cannabis is simply a plant, and no 1 has ever overdosed from smoking cannabis flower. It took a lot of convincing, even though I finally got my mom to agree to visit the dispensary. She was both surprised & impressed by the facility. The budtenders were harshly friendly, caring & knowledgeable. They listened to my mom’s troubles & set her mind at ease. My mom ended up purchasing a tincture & a variety of topicals. She has experimented with ointments & bath bombs & enjoys to use the tinctures both sublingually & applied directly to the skin. The cannabis-infused products have helped to alleviate pain & inflammation. They’ve made a large improvement in her quality of life.
