Can CBD Oil Relieve Joint Pain?

Did you know that 93% of French people* are affected by joint pain at some point in their lives? This pain can significantly affect quality of life: sleep disorders, difficulty in practicing leisure activities, professional constraints, not to mention the potential impact on family life. To better manage it, it is essential to know the causes and discover solutions adapted to your situation.

The main causes of joint pain

Joint pain can have various causes, including:

1. Osteoarthritis

This is the most common cause of joint pain. It occurs as a result of progressive wear and tear of the cartilage, often linked to age or intensive use of the joint. People most at risk are:

• Seniors, due to the natural aging process.
• Overweight individuals, as weight puts increased pressure on joints.
• Athletes, whose joints are subjected to repeated stress.
• Post-menopausal women, because hormonal changes can affect bone health.

2. Arthritis

Unlike osteoarthritis, it is an acute or chronic inflammation of one or more joints. Although arthritis can occur at any age and in all populations, its incidence nevertheless increases with age. It includes different forms, including:

• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Psoriatic arthritis

3. Other triggers

Beyond osteoarthritis and arthritis, other causes can explain joint pain:

• Trauma (sprain, dislocation or fracture).
• Inflammation of the tendons or ligaments.
• Genetic factors.
• Certain illnesses (flu, gout, etc.).

Common symptoms

Despite the varied origins, the symptoms associated with joint pain are most often similar: stiffness, swelling, joint weakness, difficulty moving or performing certain everyday tasks.

  

How to relieve joint pain quickly?

Fortunately, there are some solutions to prevent and relieve joint pain:

• Doing an aquatic activity: for all those who suffer from joint pain, osteoarthritis or arthritis, swimming is an ideal sport, gentle and suitable for relieving joints, muscles and bones. Buoyancy helps in particular to limit the pressure on the joints, which then become lighter and less painful. In addition, thanks to this sport, the pain is reduced and the joints retain their mobility. Obviously, in the event of an acute attack and severe joint pain, it is preferable not to swim and to rest.

• Perform massages: When suffering from inflammation or joint pain, massages are an effective way to relax the joints, keeping them supple and healthy. Massages are also beneficial for reducing swelling and pain due to osteoarthritis, improving joint mobility and calming tension and stress . Massage can therefore have an immediate soothing effect on pain.

• Exercise: Doing some exercises regularly can help relieve joint pain and strengthen joints. In fact, they help protect joints by strengthening the muscles around them. In addition, they help lubricate and maintain joints by promoting the production of synovial fluid in the cartilage. These exercises should be prescribed by a doctor or health professional so as not to aggravate painful joints and therefore have a counterproductive effect.

• Take care of your diet: to prevent joint pain and all the different forms of osteoarthritis, certain foods should be favored. Particularly foods rich in antioxidants (carotenoids, vitamin C, vitamin E) such as carrots, tomatoes, dried fruits (goji berries, cranberries, prunes) and oilseeds (pecans, almonds, hazelnuts). The latter help neutralize free radicals released during inflammatory reactions. In addition, it is strongly recommended to include turmeric in your daily diet. It is a spice recognized as a powerful antioxidant that helps calm inflammation of the digestive system but also of the joints. Be careful, however, it is not recommended to consume turmeric if you are on anticoagulant treatment because it thins the blood.

• Some people consume CBD: CBD, a molecule that comes from the hemp plant (or cannabis sativa), is increasingly consumed for joint comfort. A scientific study published in 2015 highlights the potential benefits of CBD on joints. CBD has a direct action on the endocannabinoid system, and more particularly on the receptors linked to anxiety and pain. Be careful, there is at this stage no recognized study highlighting the link between taking CBD and the reduction of pain. It should not be confused with THC, the psychotropic molecule of cannabis, CBD does not modify the state of consciousness and does not cause side effects or addiction. CBD can be consumed in several different forms: oils, infusions, gummies, chewing gum, candies, honey or even CBD chocolate . Although consumed by more and more people, CBD does not currently benefit from any pain claims and therefore cannot be sold by highlighting this beneficial effect.
