Spasticity is a neurological condition that affects a patient’s life and body. It is a muscle control disorder characterized by an abnormal increase in muscle tone or stiffness, which interferes with movement and speech.

It also causes muscles to contract uncontrollably, leading to tightness, spasms, and difficulty with voluntary movement.

Spasticity is not a standalone condition but rather a symptom resulting from damage to the brain or spinal cord. It commonly appears in conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS), cerebral palsy, stroke, and spinal cord injury.

For many Louisiana patients, this can mean a frustrating battle with muscles that refuse to relax, making simple tasks feel like a major challenge.

Types of Spasticity

Spasticity presents in a few different ways, depending on the severity and the underlying cause:

  • Mild Spasticity: Characterized by slight muscle stiffness or tightness that causes some difficulty with movement but generally allows for a reasonable range of motion.
  • Moderate Spasticity: Muscle stiffness is more pronounced. Spasms or uncontrollable contractions are more noticeable and interfere with walking, sitting, or daily activities.
  • Severe Spasticity: Marked by intense muscle rigidity and frequent, sometimes painful, spasms. Movement can become extremely limited, with muscles feeling almost frozen in place.
  • Focal Spasticity: Limited to specific muscle groups or limbs, affecting only parts of the body rather than widespread regions.
  • Generalized Spasticity: Affects multiple muscle groups throughout the body, leading to broader mobility challenges.

Traditional medications often help, but sometimes fall short of providing lasting relief. Medical marijuana offers a new hope for Louisiana patients who want to manage their symptoms without being too dependent on pharmaceuticals.

How Medical Marijuana Can Help Patients with Spasticity Manage Their Symptoms

CTA BannerHere’s how medical marijuana can assist those with spasticity:

Relaxes the Muscles

CBD helps modulate the signals that cause muscle overactivity without the sedation associated with some traditional muscle relaxants.

Reduces Spasms

CBD can reduce the frequency and intensity of involuntary muscle contractions by influencing neurotransmitter activity. It also means smoother, more controlled movement.

Anti-inflammatory

Spasticity often accompanies inflammation in the nervous system. CBD’s natural ability to calm inflammation supports nerve health and muscle function.

Enhances Comfort

CBD products decrease muscle tightness and pain and improve comfort during daily activities.

Improves Movement

Through the combined effects of relaxation and reduced spasms, patients can experience enhanced mobility and greater ease in completing routine tasks.

What Does Life with Spasticity Look Like?

Many facets of life are impacted by spasticity, frequently in ways that are invisible to others.

For those who have the illness, day-to-day activities could include:

  • Muscle stiffness that makes bending or stretching difficult
  • Frequent, uncontrollable muscle spasms causing pain or discomfort
  • Challenges with walking or maintaining balance
  • Difficulty with fine motor skills like writing, buttoning clothes, or using utensils
  • Fatigue resulting from constant muscle tension
  • Sleep disruptions caused by painful spasms or cramps
  • Increased risk of falls and injuries due to sudden muscle contractions
  • Dependence on mobility aids such as braces, canes, or wheelchairs
  • Emotional strain, including frustration and feelings of isolation
  • Limitations in social or professional activities due to physical restrictions

They are a great help to me. the pain I feel on a everyday basis can become overwhelming but with the help of Medicis I’ve been up walking and not some much on edge with the pain. They do help those who really are in need. The pain pills my docs gave written out for me was all wrong. Made me sick to my stomach. They had side effects like depression and anxiety along a slew of others. I’m better off with the edibles.
