[|Human|] My 11 yr old daughter has Chiari 1 malformation and I have seen that canniboid oil has been helping kids with other conditions, my question is has there been any legitimate studies that show if it can help with the pain , insomnia and nausea that are the result of having Chiari and nerve damage ?
[|AI|]  Dear friend, I did some basic research and discovered that there are only anecdotal studies on the various benefits of oil extracted from the marijuana plant but hardly any hard-core scientific data. The material on the net shows only relief with inflammatory conditions and some types of cancer. In your children case, neither of these situations apply. Rather, the symptoms of pain and insomnia are probably due to compression of nerve roots as they exit the brain. Hence, in my humble opinion, I doubt if the cannaBINOID oils can do much for the Chiara 1 malformation. It might still be possible for you to try it if any recognized institute is planning to conduct trials on this kind of treatment. Your child can then join such a trial after completing the requirements for joining it.
