I started using CBD topical oil to assuage the pain of arthritis with my Knees. The job routine I have had for years of constant use of ladders, climbing and line work has attributed to my condition of running Knees. CBD oil is a great alternative to prescription or over the counter drugs.

assuage
verb uh-SWAYJ
Definition :
1 : to lessen the intensity of (something that pains or distresses) : ease.
2 : to make quiet : pacify.
3 : to put an end to by satisfying : appease, quench.
Did You Know ?
Scholars assume that the word assuage derives from assuaviare, a Vulgar Latin term that combines the prefix ad- ("to" or "toward") and the Latin suavis, meaning "sweet," "pleasant," or "agreeable." (Suavis is also the source of the adjective suave.) To assuage is to sweeten or make agreeable or tolerable, and it is far from the only English word for relieving or softening something difficult. Others include allay, alleviate, and mitigate. Allay implies an effective calming or soothing of fears or alarms, while alleviate implies temporary or partial lessening of pain or distress. Mitigate suggests moderating or countering the force or intensity of something painful.
Examples :
"Prince wrote often and eagerly about the idea of sanctuary—places where his spiritual anxieties were assuaged." — Amanda Petrusich, The New Yorker, 25 June 2018.
"The interview offers a rare glimpse of what Charles might be like as king, and is perhaps an effort to assuage critics who have worried that he would diverge from British monarchs, who are bound by tradition to reign, not rule, over their subjects." — Palko Karasz, The New York Times, 8 Nov. 2018.

The use of the Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) machine after total knee surgery would assuage the pain. Thus, I did not need as much pain medication.

Maj Robert Thornton - That is why I am fighting it ! The so called "company" workers comp ortho ,said it has nothing to do with my pain. Which I have seen three orthos so far. Two company whom denied and my ortho who said I need arthoscopic surgery.... I have filed with state to see another orthopedic surgeon. Yes I have the MRI that shows the torn meniscus in two places. all I can do is wait. I could have been back full time months ago. But, they drag It out ! Thanks Robert...

SGT John " Mac " McConnell the company orthopedic said a torn meniscus has nothing to do with your pain? Incredible, why not tweak his knee and tear his meniscus. 2 to 1 odds says he would change his tune then.

SGT John " Mac " McConnell - Mac; I'm gonna swear at you but here goes: LAWYER. Specifically one who specializes in Workman's Comp. Let them investigate your claim and see which way it goes. It sucks, but it's the only way to fight when your getting the run around. Usually they work on commission pending any award.

Serious question: Could someone pass a "whiz quiz" using this stuff? Does it absorb into the blood system?

According to my pain clinic doctor, it still shows up even if a false showing. He told me if I used it and got a false positive, that I would be dropped from my pain management protocol.
