I do take hemp oil capsules, along with flax seed oil. Together, they seem
to be a pretty good anti-inflammatory. However, it's been becoming harder
and harder to find hemp seed oil. I may be forced to start experimenting
with other essential-fatty-acids oils.
I would think that marijauna would be worse for people with carpal tunnel
since an increase in bloodflow would increase the pressure in the carpal
tunnel. I'm just speculating.
