Will Smoking Marijuana Help With Pain In The Back, Head And Legs?
I got hit by a car today and am going to the hospital later tonight, i want to smoke marijuana to help the pain in my back, head, and legs but i am also planning on asking for a cat scan to make sure i am okay later tonight. Can i smoke? Or will this show up or negatively effect the scan?
There is a lack of evidence about the health effects of marijuana and it will Make you more likely to be involved in another car accident. Visit the ER, they will give you some opioid. Though it will not show up or negatively affect your scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
