Marijuana Skin Cream

[iksaxophone]

Just got some skin cream with cannabidiol in it from a head shop. It is supposed to relieve eczema.
Yesterday I moisturized my whole body with it and got a surprisingly strong and long lasting body high (placebo or reality? I know the perceptable effects of CBD are controversial). However, my eczema didn't go away until today, so I'm not sure if it was related to the cream.
Has anyone else used this? I'd like to have some verification from other people before I spend any more money on this.

CBD and other cannabinoids are absorbed through the skin, yes. Also, as well as having cannabinoid receptors in our brains we have them throughout the entire body. It is entirely possible to get certain body parts "high" as well as your brain, if you will. There may have been a placebo effect to some degree, but there is no doubt that effects can be felt from cannabinoid creams and topical solutions.

Would really like to know if anybody has experience with creams for psoriasis, with and without the activated thc. I heard the thc helps auto immune diseases and slows cell division and the cbd helps relieve inflammation.

I could almost guarantee you a THC and CBD containing cream would help with psoriasis, if only with symptoms, but most likely everything.

I've heard of (and seen) incredible results for cannabis topicals for psoriasis. Even clearing up the "plaque" related to the most severe forms.

It's super easy to make if you don't have medical access as well. Just infuse cannabis into coconut oil and then combine with a small amount of beeswax to harden. You can add essential oils as desired. Check youtube or google for recipes.
