Chronic pain is one of the most common medical issues in the United States, and according to the CDC there’s an estimated 20.4% of Americans having suffered chronic pain issues. A developing field of interest in medicine is the application of medical marijuana to alleviate chronic pain as an alternative to opiates. Medical marijuana has continued to gain traction in the medical community as a potential substitute to opiates, particularly due to medical marijuana’s lack of addictive properties as compared to opiates.
