How Medical Marijuana Can Help Sickle Cell Anemia
One main way that medical marijuana can help patients with sickle cell anemia is through chronic pain relief. It has also been shown that marijuana is an anti-inflammatory, which can help reduce the damage to internal organs by reducing the inflammation that plagues the organs. Medical marijuana also offers relief from anxiety and depression which often come with a diagnosis of sickle cell anemia.
