Can Marijuana Be Smoked After A Septoplasty?
Hello,
I had a septoplasty yesterday, and I was wondering if using a vaporizer to smoke marijuana would complicate anything. I would obviously be very gentle, and please don't answer with "it's illegal" as we both know it is considered medicine in many states. Thanks for your time.

hello,thanks for ur query, post septoplasty wound takes 4-6weeks for healing.normal smoking or marijuana smoking causes delayed healing.irritation in nasal mucosa can lead to spontaneous bleeding followed by infection. better u need to wait for at least 15 days for doing ur legal things.all d best.take care.
