Benefits of medical marijuana after injury
Getting injured is not fun for anyone.
- Not even daredevils welcome the idea of getting hurt.
The pain is terrible enough. I fell awkwardly and hit a tree while downhill skiing. I came out of that disaster with fractures and a neck injury. Thanks to medical marijuana, I am now getting back to a normal life. I’m just lucky to be alive and be able to once again function without horribly pain. The neck injury thing was the worst part of it. It required surgery and resulted in a lot of pain. I started taking pain pills that were prescribed. However, it didn’t take long for me to start abusing the meds. I couldn’t do anything physical without taking a pill first. It was not a good situation. A woman I work with noticed my problem and suggested I look into medical marijuana for dealing with pain. She helped me to access cannabis information. That led me to a more complete understanding of what cannabis can do. I knew immediately that medical marijuana was the right way to go for me. So, I worked my way through the medical marijuana regulations in order to get a legal cannabis card. Shopping at the dispensary has been the best thing ever. I use cannabis products to alleviate the pain. Cannabis products are also helping me get through the demands of rehab so I can get totally back to normal sooner. I no longer take any prescribed pain medication. I’m thankful to have gotten such amazing results from medical cannabis.
