Anyone tried topical CBD or THC for neuropathy pain and paresthesia?
Anyone tried CBD topically or THC gummies or anything on that order for the burning radiating pain of neuropathy? Also has anyone had a neurologist suggest this as a potential therapy? I will ask my own neurologist but wanted some broader input in the meantime. Success anyone? My family thinks this should be considered. I have tried various topical and oral prescribed medications with little success so far. Thanks for any comments.

I have developed Severe Neuropathy in my Feet! Dr .say it's because of my 8 year Battled with Lyme Disease symptoms!
I find you can read about any cures except for neuropathy!
I am trying to find help! I'm trying 25mg CBD they say will help??
Been on them for a week and only noticed a slight relief!
Has anyone tried CBD or do you have something that can help?
I'm trying to get into a Podiatrist in the next week!
I would appreciate any help or suggestions!
At night the pain is almost unbearable!
Any help would be greatly appreciate it!
THANKS

Sorry to hear about your neuropathy pain issues. This is really hard on anyone.
I too have been struggling for years with neuropathy pain. Neither medicinal CBD nor THC have helped me, but some people do respond well and find relief. Only way to find out is to try.
I found an interesting scientific paper on cannabinoids for neuropathic pain and attach it here FYI.
Good luck and all the best!

1 ReactionI had awful pain that I couldn’t find any relief for until I tried THC gummies. I only ate a small portion, just enough to relieve the pain but not enough to get buzzed. I can relate to what you are going through and I hope you can find some sort of relief!

Where were you able to find thc gummies for pain? I don't want the high just relief from my constant pain. TIA
I did find the CBD 20mg gummies on line! Have been on them for almost 2 weeks. Just still having severe pain! Just finished my first jar. Hope they start kicking in soon!
JUST A WARNING! When buying them be careful! Got mine from Forest Mountain! They advertise a low price! Then when you try and check they do a bunch of different programs that leads to confusion!! When I realized my jar of Gummies cost me $215. For 3 jars! When i called to complain I got and off shore call center that just issued a 30% credit!! So this must have happened to others!
Really makes life difficult to live!
As I said before it baffles me why there is no cure or help! So many millions are suffering needlessly!
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
BLESS YOU ALL!

I've been using CBD THC 125mg topical salve. Get it from Ananada Professional online. It's usually about $24 but they always have sales and you get points that accumulate dollars off, so last time it was only $13. I rub it on my feet, just around the toes and top of foot and in about 15 minutes I fall asleep and sleep all night. It's the only thing so far that I've found for good relief from either pain or just the awful pressure on the toes, especially the big toe. The jar lasts me a long time.
I have tried both and both cause dizziness. That is the last thing I need with balance issues. Poor balance is my major complaint. Am restarting PT to improve balance. Also use a cain and PT recommends a rotator for uneven surfaces.
Same here with the balance issues! Mine started 8 years ago because of Lyme Disease! Have not noticed anything different since I have been taking the CBD Gummies !
Thanks Again for the issue suggestions!

@sundancerdb78 I did CBD for a while but it really didn’t help so I quit. About 3 months I believe!
