OT: Old age and dry skin

Geo-TH,In

Well-known Member
The older I get the dryer my skin gets. I've
discovered after trying many things, vaseline
works the best, not to mention its CHEAP!

In July CBD oil became legal in Indiana so I
tried it. I rub it on not drink it. It cured
the tendonitis in my arms and shoulder. It
also helps my arthritis, especially my
thumbs.

This morning I thought of reeses cups while
looking at the jar of vaseline and CBD oil.
Chocolate and peanut butter goes together why
not mix CBD oil with vaseline?

So now I'm a slippery old man after greasing
up. It seems to be working well on my thumbs.
Almost afraid of greasing up my hip. I might
slide out of recliner.

If there are any brave souls, try it and
report back.

BTW, I found I can order CBD from a place in
Florida at about half the cost.
 
Put on some Jefferson Airplane,smoke a joint and chill out it'll relieve all your nervous tension and then eat the Reece's cups when you get the munchies.(LOL)
 
Yes, major dry skin here. Especially on my feet in winter. Every night rub on some vaseline or vicks vapo rub and that really helps. Otherwise my feet are rough as a pine cone.
 
Geo, when you say cured tendonitis, are you saying you don't have to keep putting on to stop the pain?
My right thumb almost gets to where I can't use it after working a lot. It is getting to the point that I can't open my rod holder on my welder to put a welding rod in it. Have to use both hands.
I do a lot of welding and it is getting tougher to keep using my hand.
I did injure it severely a couple of times about 10 years ago.
There is a store near here that sells the oil. May have to give it a try.
What is the cost of it?
Thanks, Richard in NW SC
 
I am a diabetic and dry skin is a problem. Over the years I have tried a number of creams and have for the last 2 years have been using Gold Bond Ultimate lotion for diabetics' dry skin relief. It works better than anything I have used. I have the thin skin that diabetic and older people get and this lotion has improved the skin.
 
One thing that can cause dry skin is using too hot a water in the shower, and standing under the shower while rinsing shampoo off your head. Most shampoos are made to fight oily hair, and the soap crossing your skin will remove skin oils too. For you bald guys, guess this doesn?t apply. Lucky devils.
 
Wifey uses it for aches and pains. I was going to get some and send to Old when he was mentioning his pains- went to the local emporium and it was 40 bucks! For a can about the size of a shoe polish tin. I decided Old is a good guy, but not THAT good.
 
I have arthritis in my hands,especially the left.Also have back,leg and foot pain.I use the drops-you put under your tongue for 30+ seconds,and then swallow. My left hand went from achy pain holding a glass of water to where I can pick up a 6x6x24 block of wood without hardly noticing it.My foot pain is mostly gone too.It helps with my back,but not completely. I am very satisfied with it.But it is expensive.Most people don't realize there are varying strengths of CBD. LOOK at the bottle and read the milligrams of CBD per bottle. Mine is 2950mg per 4oz bottle. I take it about 4 times a day. I tried twice a day,but that was not enough. My Mom got relief from twice a day with the lower dose/strength. So results vary.It takes little time to start working-about a week. I took it a while and stopped to see how much it helped,and realized very soon how much it helped. I am faithfully back on it now and plan on staying using it. IT IS WAY BETTER THAN ANY OVER THE COUNTER PAIN RELIEVER. MARK.
 
Ellis-it is made from hemp(not marijuana) and is becoming more popular every day. It is legal to grow in Ky.,if you fill out the application,and are approved. Processors are starting up all over too. Read my response above.Mark.
 
Yes, cured my tendonitis that I had for about 20 years, gone. I still have arthritis in hands and other places. That requires daily applications at least morning and evening.
No idea why but the combination of vaseline and CBD seems to stay on thumbs longer and they feel better. I applied my combo on right hip this morning, it's working better than just CBD oil.

Friend needs knee replacement and CBD won't help bone on bone pain.
 
Agree with everything you said. I used to take tramadol, no more drugs.

(quoted from post at 21:15:04 12/01/18) The joints in my fingers are swollen and and stiff from arthritis. Will CBD oil help that?

I would definitely try it for your symptoms. I have used a spray that goes under your tongue for arthritis in my neck and back and it works great. In fact I never really complained much about my hands and feet being achy but with taking CBD those ailments are gone too. :D Good, luck, it wont hurt to try it.
