Is Body Itchy Related To Smoking Marijuana?
Ive recently realized that after I smoke marijuana my body is super itchy, its become unbarable, i feel my ears itch internally and its all worst in the face, I've also realized i'm slightly breaking out, something i never have an issue with, it is possible that i'm allergic to pot?

Hi,
Cannabis is well-known to cause perceptual disturbances. So rather than allergy, it could be your sensory system playing games with you. Though theoretically it is not impossible to be allergic to cannabis, it is not a common situation. I would suggest that whatever the cause, it will be better for you to stay away from cannabis as it is even otherwise harmful for your health.
Best wishes.
