This famous remedy of marijuana infused rubbing alcohol has been used for ages among many households and has been nicknamed “grandma’s magic remedy”. It is commonly used for fever, congestion and limb pains.
The marijuana is placed into a large bottle and rubbing alcohol is poured over it and left to soak. It is then simply applied to the affected areas.
For children, a piece of cotton is soaked in the solution and placed in the belly button to fight fevers or rubbed on the chest and back for congestion.
