    Hey fellow blades wanted to know what strains are good for chronic pain. Specifically I suffer from lower back pain. Please any suggestions of what strains would be good and which strains wouldn't help as much. Thanks in advance GC! :wave:

    In my experience go Indica.

    Sativas for me only enhance the pain. I can't tell if it's a mental thing (i.e. I focus on the pain more) or if it has something to do with vasodilation (which makes inflammation worse.)

    I find strain guides marginally useful - are you really getting the strain that you think you are - and does your body respond in the same way as the author's. Crapshoot at times.

    Good Luck:)

    I'd have to agree with the above poster, an indica seems to give more of a body high/relaxation. Smothing like a romulan or most "purple" strains like gdp, purple dragon etc.
