Dr. Edmunds provides an answer to another community member on phantom limb pain. He writes: \"Any route of administration may be helpful, including vaporizing, oral/ingestible delivery, and topical application. Vaporizing is fast acting for a shorter duration (1-2 hours) whereas oral/ingestible medications have a longer period of time before onset (up to to 2 hours) and have a longer duration of action (up to 8 hours).\" See his full answer as well as another community member's response here: https://www.hellomd.com/answers/574d90a1b2f1d800080000ef/can-smoking-marijuana-help-with-phantom-limb-or-is-there-a-better-way-to-take-it\nAs well, check out the following article listing 6 marijuana strains for back pain--they include Headband, OG Kush, Skywalker OG and more. I encourage you to search in our Q&As and Articles to see what other content and answers are available that will hopefully address your situation. I wish you the best in your road to recovery.
