The simple answer to your question is likely yes. While I have not heard of, or used this remedy, you must assume that if you get relief, it is from the marijuana getting to your muscles. If it goes in your muscles, it needs to get out of your muscles and metabloized by your body. The only way this can occur is that the substance leaves the muscles and passes into the blood stream. So please be careful.
