Within in 15 minutes of application, her pain subsided dramatically and she was able to move freely without tending up.

That evening the pain slowly reappeared and she didn’t want to reapply the DMSO as it is kind of smelly and it irritates the skin somewhat, so I gave her 1ml of liquid CBD oil (Frank CBD 100mg/g). Her pain was pretty much ...
