Do joint pain patients want to use cannabis to treat their pain ?
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - OE Original
OE Journal. 2018;6(14):1A survey of people living with joint and arthritis pain offers a clearer view of how medical cannabis fits into current pain management. Many respondents had experience with cannabis, and a notable share had used it specifically for pain within the past year. Among users, cannabis accounted for a substantial portion of their overall pain-control strategies, while non-users often believed that conventional medications—including opioids—could be partially replaced by it. Support for smoked cannabis was low, with stronger interest in pills, edibles, and topical forms. Overall, the findings point to broad openness toward cannabis as part of joint-pain management and highlight the need for accessible, non-smoked delivery options.
