I have a mild to moderate form of psoriasis that affects my knees plus elbows, and it is an issue with my immune program that causes the skin to regenerate too quickly.
It results in a scaly, red, sore plus itchy patch of skin that is easily uncomfortable, uncharming plus often embarrassing.
If I scrape my elbows or knees even lightly, I bleed easily easily, when I was first ran tests on with psoriasis, I tried prescription medication. It was seriously pricey plus only helped for a short time, and the psoriasis quickly built up a tolerance to the medication, plus, I l received that synthetic medications come with a lot of long-term, harmful side-effects. I am not willing to suffer liver mangle for the sake of treating a skin condition. I moved onto over-the-counter treatments that supply limited relief. I considered getting my MMJ card however was reluctant to go through the time, effort plus expense when it expires every year. I was glad when recreational cannabis was finally legalized in my state. I can now shop for psoriasis treatments at a local dispensary. The dispensary carries a variety of cannabis-infused topicals such as ointments, gels, lotions, sprays plus roll-ons that have easily made a difference for me. I choose topicals with high CBD plus CBN potency. They are non-psychoactive which makes it possible to apply them numerous times per day, along with cannabis, these topicals are infused with essential oils that smell nice plus add to the therapeutic properties, but since starting treatment with cannabis, I’ve seen a significant improvement in my skin. I am hopeful that the psoriasis will someday disapapple entirely.
