Exploring the Pros and Cons of CBD Salves

One of the most popular CBD products today is topical salves. This has many people wondering just what this product is and whether they should be using it.

The Pros of CBD Salves

While all forms of CBD oil have received positive reviews, many people claim that topical application is best for several applications, including:

  • Athletic injuries
  • Daily discomforts
  • Skin conditions

Because CBD salve does not have to travel through your digestive system, you may feel the effects from use much faster than other methods.

Several studies have been conducted on the restorative properties of CBD salve, especially for skin-related ailments such as dermatitis and psoriasis. In addition, these salves may have positive impact on burns, muscle discomfort, rashes, skin infections, and wounds.

Unlike conventional pain medications, there is no risk for overdose on CBD salve application. There are no psychoactive effects, so these products are not habit-forming. Feel free to use the salve as much as you want without worry throughout the day.

The Cons of CBD Salves

Most people will not have a bad reaction when using CBD salves. However, if your skin is particularly sensitive, you may have a reaction to some of the additional ingredients, such as beeswax. If the salve is used as directed, bad reactions are not likely.

As with any new product taken to improve health, be sure to consult your doctor before beginning use to ensure this is the right product for you.
