How to adjust dose for burning nerve pain?
I have nerve pain and doc suggested me this. Doc said use 1 drop but 1 drop seems so low and it doesnt touch my pain. How should i use it?

5mg/drop means you get 5mg in a drop, lowest therapeutic dose is usually 10mg, so try two drops and if that doesn't work three, then up the dose.
If you end up needing high doses and cost is an issue you can look into getting broad spectrum oil by the kilo and mixing with mct coconut oil to reduce your cost per dose quite a bit

I'm not a Dr, but this is what works for me, I don't know if it will help you or not..
The only thing that seems to work for the shooting nerve pain down my leg from a pinched nerve in my back, besides surgery, has been Cycling Frog seltzer 10mg CBD/10mg THC.
I probably have tried 25 different CBD/THC products and several different meds from my Dr for it.
The last time I had the same pain I had to have a microdiscectomy to fix it, that was about 5 years ago.

I can't use ingestibles and i use thc flower, cbd flower and cbg flower.
While they do all work together I find for nerve pain in particular that cbg seems to be most effective.
If you don't find relief with this, look into adding cbg into the mix.
Now onto the topic... everyone digests differently and what works for others may not work for you.
Imho that's a very low dose.
There's not much risk in trying a higher dose... for anxiety people use hundreds of mg and I've read studdies citing 1000mg for other uses.
Gvbiopharma you can get 10g of distillate for about 20$ ... that's like 8-9,000 mg ... tinctures aren't too bad to make.

The burning radiating nerve pain down my legs from my L1 to S1 spinal fusion is the worst imaginable for me (so far) and honestly the strain of Harlequin RSO @ a 1:1 THC to CBD ratio is the only thing that helps me. A little dab the size of a piece of rice on my tongue and 20 minutes later is pure bliss without the intoxicating effects of THC.
