I have alcohol tinctures, coconut butter, glycerin tinctures. They all have there place. A little of the alcohol rubbed on my temples will cure a headache fast. A mix of the coco butter and glycerin makes an awesome warming topical. Also, my wife had a wart that kept coming back. I had her cover it in BHO for about a month and its been gone for about 6 months. Favorite strains for pain? g13 works awesome, but will knock you out. Longs peak blue works great and if you don't overdue it will leave you capable of doing more that drooling. I have a number of other strains in coconut butter but I usually consider them more recreational.
