Cannabis & Inflammation

Supporting the Body's "Overactive Alarm"

Inflammation can show up as joint pain, stiffness, GI issues, skin flares, or general "I feel awful" fatigue. Many patients explore cannabis to support comfort and function — especially when inflammation affects sleep and daily activity.

Common goals

  • Less soreness and stiffness
  • Better sleep (which helps recovery)
  • Improved daily comfort and mobility

Patient-friendly guidance

Consistency often matters more than intensity. Many people focus on "functional relief" rather than feeling heavily impaired.

Lifestyle basics still count: sleep, hydration, movement, and diet all play a role.
