Can you take CBD oil everyday to manage chronic pain? This blog contains everything you need to know.
Imagine waking up in the morning without that nagging pain that sets the tone for your day before you even get out of bed. Thanks to CBD products, thousands of people worldwide have made this fantasy a reality. But when your pain management needs demand daily attention, is CBD still a safe option? Let’s discuss.
CBD for pain relief – what does the science say?
CBD, or cannabidiol, is the second most prevalent compound found in the hemp plant. This powerful compound contains no intoxicating effects but does interact with your body’s endocannabinoid system to deliver unparalleled benefits, such as reducing pain and inflammation. Because CBD is free of any psychoactive properties, it has become a more and more attractive alternative medicine for those in need of pain relief without any unwanted side effects.
In fact, not only do you not get “high” from CBD, but you also gain a plethora of other health benefits when you incorporate it into your daily routine, such as sleep, mood, and appetite regulation. What’s more, CBD products are just as effective in any format, whether you use it sublingually, topically, or ingest it orally. Specifically for pain management, Cloud City recommends this topical Intensive Relief Rub that delivers targeted pain relief to any area of concern. So whether it’s a chronic migraine that just won’t quit or joint pain that plagues your every effort to move, this lotion-based rub will work its magic to eradicate pain and discomfort. The best part? It’s 100% safe and even recommended to be used daily.
Can you use CBD oil everyday?
The short answer to this question is an enthusiastic YES! Using CBD daily actually helps its therapeutic effects thrive, so the more you can incorporate it into your daily routine, the more you stand to gain. Here are some of the benefits CBD has to offer for effective pain management:
- Reliable relief. CBD is a sustainable solution to managing chronic pain and situational discomfort, such as period cramps or muscle tension after a strenuous workout. Leaning on CBD as a pain relief aid encourages better maintenance of a stable comfort level throughout your day.
- Anti-inflammatory properties. CBD’s leading superpower is its ability to reduce inflammation. Whether mental, physical, or emotional, CBD saves the day.
- Because of its amazing anti-inflammatory properties, the effects of CBD also help with sleep quality and irregularities, dismantling anxiety and enhancing your overall psychological landscape. By the way, these are all challenges any chronic pain presents.
Are there any risks to using CBD every day?
This sounds great and dandy, but what risk factors are involved?
- CBD is non-habit forming. Because there are no psychoactive properties in CBD, there is no risk of addiction. As such, this makes it a safer long-term solution for pain management compared to prescription medications.
- CBD has minimal side effects and is well-tolerated by most people. If any side effects occur, they are mild and, at best, unpleasant. For instance, some CBD users have reported side effects such as drowsiness and cotton mouth.
- We recommend starting low and going slow to find your perfect CBD dosage. Start with 1/4 of a dropper for sublingual tinctures or ½ of an edible at a time, gradually increasing your intake as you gauge your body’s response. It’s important to note your relationship with CBD is a long game. Expect to experiment a bit to figure out the cadence and dosage that works best for you and your pain management needs.

How to incorporate CBD into your daily routine
As mentioned above, incorporating CBD into your daily routine will ensure you get the most bang for your buck. Here are some additional tips to start you off in the right direction:
Choose high-quality CBD from a reputable source.
The best way to guarantee your CBD products are top-tier is to buy them from a trusted source. Cloud City’s commitment to CBD education and customer transparency is unmatched. This is exemplified by the most recent winning title (for the second consecutive year) of ‘Best CBD Store in Silicon Valley’ according to Mercury News.
Start low and go slow.
If you’ve read our blogs before, we hope this mantra is starting to cement in your internal dialogue. “Start low and go slow” is the golden rule we live by at Cloud City Supply and the first thing we advise new customers. To elaborate, the effects of CBD, like many other things in life, vary according to the individual. Consequently, observing your body’s response when you start taking CBD and gradually increasing your dosage as necessary is important.
Like any other medication, CBD should be taken at the same time every day.
By doing so, you help your body prepare to respond accordingly. For instance, putting CBD in your tea at night will help your body prepare to relax, paving the way for better sleep.
Note your body’s response.
Keep a journal or ongoing note on your phone each time you take CBD to monitor how your body receives it. This will help you adjust product format and dosage as necessary.
CBD products are proven safe and effective for pain management. Put simply, CBD is a sustainable pain management strategy that doesn’t present any of the harmful side effects that prescription medications entail. By using high-quality CBD products (such as the ones Cloud City offers) and tracking your dosages, incorporating CBD into your daily routine can work wonders on inflammation of all kinds, whether of the body or the mind.
