Members shared overwhelmingly positive experiences using cannabis or hemp salves for rheumatoid arthritis pain, with several describing significant relief from joint aches and swelling within 30 minutes of application to hands, fingers, wrists, ankles, and toes. Many members offered practical sourcing tips, including purchasing from medical marijuana dispensaries, ordering from Etsy, or checking local vape shops, though some noted the products can be pricey at around $75 and may have a greasy texture or menthol smell. A recurring theme was initial skepticism giving way to enthusiastic endorsement, with members now carrying the salve everywhere and sharing hopeful prayers that it would bring similar relief to others in pain.

@A myRAteam Member: yes I rub it into my toe knuckles under them on top of them around my ankles, on my hands on fingers tops, bottom,wrists. Slather lots on and rub in. Is greasy at first and does have some menthol in it so kinda stinks but usually within 30 minutes ache and swelling go down!

I have used the Vultaren on my hands and it made all my food taste terrible. I have been using the cannabis salve and it works wonders. I was very skeptical at first but it works so well! I carry it with me every where. Good luck, I hope it works for you too.
