“Last Sunday we got sub-zero wind chill with 4 inches snow. Deb & I walk the dog 3 miles a day regardless of weather conditions. Turning a corner my leading leg slipped out in front of me on black ice, and the other leg (that has only 15% nerve control due to my spinal cord damage from 2001), slipped out backwards. The back leg, bent at the knee and ended up underneath me. I hit the ice pavement with excruciating pain in my upper right thigh. I thought I had broken my right femur and couldn’t get up. I crawled to the other side of the road to get off the black ice.
After a few minutes I was able to stand & limp back to the house with deb’s help. Since I was able to stand and walk I decided I hadn’t broken the bone, or torn any ligaments at the knee. Most likely it was pulled, strained, or torn muscle. I took a double dose of NanoX, a dose of CB2+ oil under the tongue for 30 seconds, and applied CBD pain creme to my thigh. Then I strapped an ice pack onto my thigh. Within about 30 minutes the throbbing pain had resolved, and I was able to walk with minor pain. I used additional doses of NanoX and pain creme every 4 hours, and CB2+ at night before bed.
The next day was pain free with only mild sensation when walking. I’ve continued to use the pain creme this week when the ache starts to flair. I am extremely grateful that I had my CBD supplies to deal with this situation as a visit to the ER would have been costly, time consuming, & frustrating. At 70 years old, a scary situation was handled and my continued belief in NEWYOU CBD products was reinforced!” ~ Dr. Reed
