Question 1

how effective is marijuana as a painkilller?

Accepted Answer

Unclear: Medical marijuana is legal in several states, and many pts are convinced of benefits in headaches and other pain syndromes.  Yet, research, to convincingly prove benefits in the treatment of pain, are lacking.  Therefore, we may be seeing merely placebo effects due to the effect on mood and behaviour.  Eventually, i suspect that organized medicine will rigorously evaluate this, but no proof so far.

Yes: Also in urine.

Question 4

does marijuana have effects like a narcotic too?

Accepted Answer

Reward?: Some people have a pleasant, calming, and mildly euphoric effect from smoking marijuana, similar to opioid "reward." this is what I have been told.  Others who have tried marijuana, do not use it again, due to lack of a high, pleasant effect, or calming.

Question 5

can you smoke marijuana if you have a picc line?

Accepted Answer

You can: People smoke marijuana in all kinds of situations, with variable effects.  I don't know of any  specific contraindications to smoking marijuana while having a picc line . . . . But, what is the reason for smoking at all?  It could be that whatever symptoms are happening, could be relieved without adding smoke of any sort to your lungs.  Your doctor could be a helpful resource for this.

Question 6

does a banker sound like someone who smokes marijuana?

Accepted Answer

Not automatically: You can make assumptions about anyone based on superficial characteristics (like occupation) and be very wrong about his habits and inner struggles.  Being a banker says nothing about his or her personal life.  People have a wide variety of ways to handle high stress -- and they're spread throughout the population.

Question 7

can marijuana be consumed in food after a rhinoplasty?

Accepted Answer

No: Marijuana is a psychoactive drug and has ill-effects, despite being legal. Tobacco and alcohol are also legal and bad for your health and so is weed.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 8

how long will marijuana show positive in a urine test?

Accepted Answer

That depends: On how much you have smoked over how long.  Count on a month.

Question 9

is the smell of growing unsmoked marijuana bad for a infant?

Accepted Answer

Hmmmm: Probably not as bad as having parents who smoke the marijuana around the infant, while they're supposed to be taking care of him/her.  Relating with a baby -- sober -- helps him develop emotionally and intellectually.  Very important to be clear yourself while parenting.

Question 10
