Can smoking weed help your knee?

Question

my friend said the only reason why she smoked weed is to make sure her kneee doesn't give out. I dont believe what she saying. do you know if this is true

Answer 1

It's a painkiller.  

Answer 2

It has pain  relieving qualities but this is a rubbish excuse and she knows it.

There are lots of legal alternatives for pain relief on the market.

Why doesn't she try manual therapy or exercise therapy?

No one would risk prosection and buying illegal uncontrolled substances which could be laced with any poison for knee pain. Your friend just likes smoking dope.

Answer 3

it would reduce pain but does nothing to prevent it from going out.

Answer 4

It reduces pain but it does not solve waht ever is causing the pain in the first place. Why do her knees hurt, incorrect footware, old injury. She would be better off taking evening primrose oil for joint pain.

Answer 5

the only benefit she could be getting from weed as far as her knee is concern is relief from pain. or at least a distraction from pain...either way, its not making it so her knee doesn't go out.
