How CBD Provides Relief for Pain and Inflammation

Pain

When you feel sore after a tough workout or game, that’s your body releasing prostaglandins as a response to injury or overworked muscles/joints. Prostaglandins are what cause pain, inflammation, and swelling. This is why ibuprofen is a common choice for pain relief, as it blocks the production of prostaglandins, in turn reducing inflammation and swelling. But ibuprofen can have potential side effects most people would want to avoid. 

CBD, alternatively, works with your body’s endocannabinoid system. CBD binds with TRPV-1 receptors, which are responsible for mediating pain perception, inflammation, and body temperature, providing pain relief in a safer, more organic way. 

At higher CBD concentrations, 5-HT1A serotonin receptors in the body can activate. This receptor is largely associated with anti-depressant effects, and is known as the ‘feel good’ chemical in your body. Releasing serotonin helps other neurological and biological body processes, too – addiction, appetite, anxiety, sleep – meaning you’ll feel better in both body and mind when opting for CBD topicals for pain relief. 

Inflammation

We’re sure you’ve read this online before: CBD makes for an excellent anti-inflammatory. 

Inflammation is the result of signaling proteins, or cytokines, being synthesized and secreted by immune cells. In other words, cytokines are the gatekeepers of inflammation, balancing their onset and resolution. 

CBD hemp pain relief cream in particular is so effective in fighting inflammation because it suppresses the production of these pro-inflammatory cytokines.
