Monday Morning Medical Minute With Precision Pain Solutions:

I am Dr. Kamlesh Sisodiya, one of the partners of Precision Pain Solutions, a division of American Pain and Wellness. Today I am sharing with you the benefits of CBD oil for chronic pain patients.

What is CBD oil?
Cannabis indica and sativa are the two main Ma*****na strains that produce the pharmacological principles known as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). CBD oil is mostly cannabidiol and trace THC. CBD can also be extracted from H**p plant which has less amount of THC.

CBD versus THC
CBD has therapeutic value and is non addicting.
THC is euphoric and has addicting properties.
Studies have shown and extrapolated the exact dosage of CBD to provide analgesic and antianxiety properties without the risk of addiction and euphoria classically produced by THC.

What is the Cannabinoid system?
The cannabinoid system is named for the plant that led to its discovery - is one of the most important physiologic systems involved in establishing and maintaining human health.
In humans, the Endocannabinoids and their receptors are found throughout the body: in the brain, organs, connective tissues, glands, and immune cells.

How does CBD work?
CBD works through the mechanism that binds specific receptors involved in anxiety and pain in the body. By binding at those receptors it blunts the pain sensation and lessens the anxiety effects. It also aids in helping to sleep.

What role can it play in chronic pain patients ?
The advancement for the evidence-based application of cannabis in medicine with CBD offers a safe alternative to THC and opioids for chronic pain. It can help with back pain, sciatica, diabetic, cancer and post-trauma pain. It also alleviates insomnia and anxiety in this group of patients.

You do not need a prescription for it. It is a supplement, but in Texas only CBD is approved for the medicinal use. THC is illegal. Make sure to get CBD oil that is 99.7% CBD and less than 0.3% THC.

So try out CBD products if you have any pain, anxiety or insomnia.

Talk to your physician or give us a call if you have any questions about CBD oil.
