Neuropathy in both feet

I use Fab CBD cream, and it seems to help me feel more comfortable, but it doesn’t completely resolve it. Everyone is different and there are a zillion different ones. It really just depends on what you prefer, as long as you try to get a reputable one that’s been tested so you know what you’re getting.

I chose this specifically because it’s full spectrum, meaning it includes all of the compounds that naturally occur in the plant, including a tiny fraction of THC (not enough to get you high), and it doesn’t include menthol like many other topical CBD creams. I didn’t want one with menthol because I figured then I wouldn’t be able to tell if it was the actual CBD or the menthol affecting me. I also like the smell, which is blood orange.

You can also get broad spectrum CBD, which has no THC but could have trace amounts or CBD isolate, which has no other parts of the plant in it.

But it’s believed the compounds work synergistically, and may not be as effective on their own, which is why I chose a full spectrum cream.

There’s a thread about topicals here, not just CBD: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/topical-creams-and-lotions-for-small-fiber-neuropathy/

And some info about types of CBD:

Has anyone tried CBD orally or in a patch?
