This Herb Heals Hemorrhoids Pain

There is a dire lack of studies related to hemorrhoids. It’s like the scientific world isn’t interested in anything else other than fiber and surgery when it comes to this condition.

Two studies published in the journals Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management and the Journal of Pain Management do however reveal a promising herb.

At a minimum, it will relieve the pain and inflammation.

Both studies cited found that cannabis can treat pain, even extremely severe pain in cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis sufferers. Therefore, it can be concluded that cannabis is a useful painkiller in a number of ways.

Firstly, at least two types of cannabinoid receptors, named CB1 and CB2 receptors, are involved in producing the sensation of pain. Cannabis is a cannabinoid receptor antagonist that prevents these receptors from being activated, and as such, it prevents pain.

Secondly, it also works on other neurotransmitters that are involved in producing pain, such as endorphins and 5-hydroxytryptamine (or 5-HT).

Both of the most active chemicals in cannabis are analgesics. One is THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), which is the chemical substance in cannabis that produces the euphoria, temporary psychomotor impairments, and sometimes hallucinations. The other is CBD (Cannabidiol), which is another cannabinoid that does not produce these effects.

Other studies show that cannabis is good for relieving inflammation, both when ingested and when being topically applied. One study discovered that THC had twenty times the anti-inflammatory power of aspirin and twice that of hydrocortisone.

Therefore, although evidence on hemorrhoids is still lacking, there are reasons to believe that cannabis can deal with the pain and inflammation.

Getting cannabis is of course a problem in most places, wanting to use it is another question, and it’s not a cure.
