I find that weed does not dull any pain with me...

[Chino1130]

I have been smoking for 3 years now and weed has never helped anything painful with me. I don't understand why I just realiazed and decided to post this. I have had sprained ankles, headed aches, dislocated fingers, balls smashes, and just soar muscles, and weed has never made any of those feel any better. Is this normal???

Different strains have analgesic-like properties in them. The amount of these cannabinoids varies from a lot to a little across the board. Of course the chemical make-up of your body in relation to pain tolerance might effect it and it also might depend on how high you are. When I'm really high pain is just another feeling. It still has the sensation of pain but it doesn't hurt. It doesn't feel numb or anything like if you're having surgery or getting a tooth pulled. It's just what it REALLY is: your brains reactionary mechanisms to protect the body. Just a signal going off is all.

I sprained my ankle on my skateboard...it was a really bad sprain...all 240 pounds of me came and landed and my ankle...it folded underneath me. SO my ankle was black and blue and swollen to a humongous size. I smoked some bud thinking it would help....it made it even more painful, cuz after I smoked I felt my ankle pulsating throughout my entire body. It does heal pain usually I just remember that one time where it intensified it

It's probably just your last recent couple of strains and purchases. I recently smoked some nug that actually completely realesed some of the stress related areas on my back.

you probably smoked a pure sativa.

i was bombing a hill and I ate shit on my skateboard, scraped my entire back, fucked my shoulder up and I smoked a couple bowls and I felt 80% better. Same with snowboarding, I fell on my stomach on a rail and had a huge bruise, and smoking in the trees off to the side helped me actually make it down the mountain

for me cannabis never really reduces my pain but it takes my mind off of whatever is hurting. for example, if i wake up with a killer hangover and feel nauseous and have a headache, a couple bong rips will get me buzzed and feeling good and i won't even realize im still hungover. i hope that makes sense lol

Weed definitely helps with minor aches and pains. Of course it doesn't totally remove all the pain, it works in a different way. I guess it just makes pain more bearable, and takes its edge off.

I have found that I can have the worst head ache in the world like throbbing pounding pressure and all and smoke a blunt and then be fine in five minutes, got to love the MJ.

[What'sThatSmell]

I find marijuana helps with things like colds and flus, it takes your mind right off whatever is aggrivating you.

But..

As far as actual pain goes..
Doesn't help too much.
I had a REALLY bad cough once and smoked some, and when I started coughing after it felt like my ribs were being crushed by a stampede of horses.

[poth_ead_homer]

Weed helps my fuckin back lol... and headches... usually I use it for pains, but only good bud really helps, mids and shit do nothing lol

i definitely agree about the sativa. I think if you had a dominant indica the pain would be less noticable. Weed works for me, but it has to be some indica. Sativa won't really do shit but get your mind off of it.

Well, I had an ingrown tonail which when pressure was applied to my toe it would feel like a knife was cutting deep inside. I got very stoned one night and noticed the knife cutting me was more of a slight warmth that didn't even bother me, it works well for me, most of the time.

weed definitely helps me with pain. when i was high as fuck one time i was snowboarding and caught my toe edge going off a pretty big kicker, i landed right on my chest/face and i got up and knew it would have hurt but i felt pretty good, so it was weird. and i was riding my bike last year and the chain popped which made my foot go off the pedal and i ate shit and hurt my knee really bad. well we were on our way to our buddies to smoke and after smoking my knee didnt hurt nearly as bad.
