Get into ayurveda, apply good herbal muscle balms, take ayurvedic hebs like bhrami, guduchi, dashmoola, etc.... eat healthy, take organic multivitamins, get herbal oil massages. Oil is great for dry muscle pains. I highly recomend seeking out a ayurvedic health councelor

Hi there I'm also experiencing the same lower back pain that yall are experiencing after even a few puffs from a joint. I've been smoking now for about 3-4 years (4×day) and I'm a 22 year old male. The back pain started occurring earlier this year when after a few puffs from a joint started to cause this somewhat odd mild pain. The pain would usually last 3-4 days till it will go away but I had abstain from smoking for it to go away. Now I'm just worried on what could be causing this, I don't have any other symptoms I do have lots of phlegm but I don't have a smokers cough. Just to last add that I only smoke Mary Jane.

Same thing, recently developed constant lower back pain every time after smoking weed. And I only occasionally use.

i recently messed up my back at work and i smoke off my dab pen but whenever i smoke in general, it makes my back pain worse and i looked it up and some sources say it could be due to muscle spasms or something but yeah it makes my back have a shitty pain. might be the end of my smoking era.

Hi....when I was younger my friends and I smoked pot to get high. As I got older, I stopped experimenting and rarely smoked.
Over time as my health worsened, diagnosed with severe osteoarthritis (2 total knee replacements), sacroiliitis, fibromyalgia, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), iron deficiency, uterine fibroids, and adenomyosis. I can't take anti-inflammatory drugs on a regular basis because of my low blood platelets. I don't care for opiate pain killers due to the nausea they make me feel. I recently decided to try taking CBD oil and smoke high THC medical marijuana for my pain. I don't have any issues with the CBD oil, but when I smoke the higher levels of THC botanicals, I experience a higher threshold of pain. At times the pain can be very intense, with a burning pain in my uterus and lower back that can be excrutiating. I am trying to find articles of people experiencing similar symptoms. I am very neutral when it comes to marijuana because I find if something other than prescription medication can alleviate people's pain, power on. Unfortunately, I am not getting the results I was hoping for and I am feeling at a loss.

Yes this is true. I stopped smoking for a month. Started Jogging in morning sunshine, back pain completely gone. Started smoking yesterday, notice back pain is back.

Thats why I googled this question.

Not sure why this is, but is is true.

Brilliant! Perfectly fits my condition and is the most plausible explanation I could find online so far. I came up with the same muscle relaxant hypothesis but wasnt able to varify it yet. I went through the same procedure of examinations and doctors could not find anything unusual. The reason I came up with that theory is because I realized that the pain is instantly gone if you take the pressure of your muscles by laying down. Temperature seems to play a vital role as well. A hot bath took off my pain faster than any painkiller.

Since I gave up smoking joints and bought a vaporizer, I only have that back pain on rare occasions. My thought on this is, that the containment that triggers the muscle relaxing effect is probably pulled out in a way lower dose by vaping in comparison to burning flower.

back pain here too when I smoke, didn't realize it was the weed till i ran out for almost a month, most of my aches and pains disappeared, then when i got my refill and smoked, same lower back pain occurred, as well as pains burning in the feet and legs.

I don't smoke anymore because I get paranoid and also become aware of pain all over my body. That creeps me out and scares me.

Holy sh*t, this EXACT situation happened to me a couple months back. I had been smoking with my sister, a bunch of low quality stuff my father had given us. Even though it wasn't very good stuff, it didn't matter because my sister is a light smoker and only wanted a little, which meant I could smoke the metric f**k ton leftover. An hour or so later I was feeling an insignificant amount of back pain that I chalked up as being bad posture (I was sitting pretty uncomfortably). Then about fifteen minutes to half an hour later the pain became mild, it hurt pretty bad but I just assumed I was overreacting. Then around 5 minutes later I felt one really sharp ache and then my body start to shiver like I was cold from halfway up my arms and torso down to my feet. The pain was so bad I had to lay down and count to 10 over and over in my head. I'm no doctor, nor am I an expert on pot, but I can say as a pretty avid user that I think this pain is caused purely for smoking too much in one sitting.
