Spasticity is a condition characterized by muscle stiffness and uncontrollable muscle spasms, often caused by neurological conditions like multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, or spinal cord injuries. These spasms can be painful, limit mobility, and interfere with daily activities.

Medical marijuana, particularly THC and CBD, has shown potential in reducing spasticity symptoms. THC can help relax muscles, providing relief from spasms, while CBD may reduce inflammation and help with pain management. Both compounds can promote better sleep and alleviate anxiety associated with chronic spasticity. While not a cure, medical marijuana can be an effective part of a treatment plan to manage spasticity and improve quality of life.
