Cannabidiol (CBD) oil as topical application to help with muscle spasms post-op breast augmentation?

December 23, 2017
Asked By:yinkay19 in Bellevue, WA

I'm about 5 days post-op and the muscle spasms have been pretty bad. I've heard of spasms that come and go, but mine would contract for hours and I'll feel like i cant breathe. I heard that CBD oil for topical application (doesn't contain THC so i wont be getting the psychoactive effects) can help with muscle spasms. I've applied some on my skin and it's worked really well, but my question before i continue usage: will this effect my post-op results/healing in anyway? Not ingesting/smoking it!
