Cannabis for bronchitis?

[FoilageTrees]

Hey guys, im pretty sure im getting bronchitis, i match all the symptoms and just came out of the flu. Its a very painfull cough and sore throat.

When i look up marijuana for bronchitis all i find is idiots asking if they should smoke while they have it.

My question is, should i use indica edibles for pain relief? Do you need to get super high to relieve any pain or would a low dose work?

Everyone is different. Start slow...

I have a strain that when you smoke it, it opens up your airways completely but won't kill a sinus infection which is what bronchitis is ,,,,,,,

to kill bronchitis, take 3 grapefruit seed extract pills a day for a week. You can get em at health food and vitamin stores bout $12 for a bottle of 100

With use of marijuana can cure almost anything..

Bronchitis is not a sinus infection (sinuses are spaces around the back of your nose in your head). It is an inflammation of the bronchi which are the tubes in your lungs. They get inflamed and produce mucous.

You can try edibles to see whether they help with the pain. There is a good chance you'll get some relief from the pain. Also use simple paracetamol/acetaminophen regularly... cheap and relatively effective.

Smoking will inflame your bronchi more. So definitely avoid that if bronchitis is your concern.

Interesting as I get a sinus infection every year, have for over 40 years now and every doctor I've seen has called it bronchitis and prescribed antibiotics. Guess I've been going to a bunch of hack doctors all these years LOL

definition,
acute or chronic inflammation of the membrane lining of the bronchial tubes, caused by respiratory infection or exposure to bronchial irritants, as cigarette smoke.

I don't really know what you're trying to say.

Sinuses are not the same as bronchi. Sinusitis is not the same as bronchitis.

Damn...you could be right..

Generally when it comes to Marijuana it can help a lot of conditions with the right strain but in a good majority of cases including Bronchitis it may help you feel better yes, but it won't really get rid of the bronchitis itself. You could go to a doctor, or consider some herbal alternatives.

Nothing is better for the flu then edibles for me anyway why would it not help bronchitis give it a shot

 

[jbmac]

for me, weed opens up my lungs and sinuses and helps me gently expel the extra mucus, Mucinex, steam, lots of weed and exercise helps me a lot

 

[spudsurn]

I think you should avoid smoke, bronchitis is a respiratory ailment and smoke would make it worse

 

[jbmac]

not for me, gets the mucus out and opens my lungs

 

[Walterwhiter]

What about vaping I've heard of cannabis having anti inflammatory properties. Bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tube correct?

 

[jbmac]

for me vaping is not good, the smoke is the best expectorant on earth

That explains why you've been getting infections every year. lmao

you are getting sinusitis. if it deteriorates it can turn to bronchitis. when i smoke cigs, it was almost like clockwork. i would get sinusitis and then bronchitis every winter. could not defeat it without a doctors visit either. now that i just smoke cannabis, no more issues... a mild case of sinusitis clears up without further problems.

A daily rinse will prevent most sinus infections.

I was VERY skeptical when my doctor suggested that I try it, but now I'm a believer.
Highly recommended.

My GF has chronic bronchitis and the best thing that has helped her so far are taking my coconut oil edibles. She says it opens her airways and takes some of the pressure off. Vaping or smoking while you have an infection/irritant sounds counter-productive. I recently had a sinus infection that went into my chest for a bit and stuck to edibles, even a small hit would make me break out in a coughing fit.

The cannabis resin attaches to the mucus build up in the lungs and acts as a expectorant. Get rest. Eat citrus and hot and spicy foods like Thai or Chinese with GARLIC !!!!! Mix raw sliced garlic with your food as strong as you can stand. The garlic vapor comes out of your lungs and gives you "garlic breath". So it's really good for congested lungs because it attacks the mucus from inside out. Drink a few smoke a few it will make the body feel relieved. Whiskey and beer feel good on the throat.
