Question 1

can she smoke weed after surgery? 
she had gallstone surgery

Accepted Answer

Weed: Best to run this question through would be the surgical team. The main thing would be to provide a reason for why she needs to smoke weed. Is there a symptom, such as nausea expected to improve, is it overall well being? The less being used in postsurgical period, the better, allowing the body to heal first. Many states are now allowing use of medical marijuana in specific circumstances.

Question 2

has anyone smoked weed after gallstone surgery? what are the pros n cons

Accepted Answer

Can see one's doctor: Also, research results seem to show that marijuana can start a person's schizophrenia sooner than if she did not use weed. A teenager (with a brain, neurotransmitters, and receptors not fully developed), especially with a family history of schizophrenia or psychosis, should know her family history and avoid experimenting with weed or any illegal drug that might have a similar effect on her brain.

Question 7

can i smoke weed the day after collarbone surgery?  im in a lot of pain and painkiller/tylonol combo is not helping

Accepted Answer

Let's talk: You want to smoke weed because you are used to smoking weed every day, probably . No judgement here just reality. Cannabis has well known addictive powers and your body most likely is talking to you. There is no problem smoking /using cannabis the day after surgery. The combination of your pain killers and Cannabis will magnify any central CNS ( brain) effect. Be cautious.

Question 8

can i smoke weed/marijuana after a mucocele surgery on the lower lip?

Accepted Answer

Really shouldn't: You physically can, but you really shouldn't for several reasons. First, the smoking can cause irritation to the lip area and this is never good for healing. Second, the smoking reduces blood flow to the skin overall, and that definitely is not good for healing. Try to refrain for a week. If you can't give it that long, then give at least 72 hours where you are smoke/chemical free to allow healing

Question 9

how much can i do after surgery?

Accepted Answer

Postop activity: Activity after surgery can vary widely even with one specific procedure and surgeon.  There may be technical concerns during the surgery which may make your surgeon limit your activity.

Question 10

how can i like my gummy smile after surgery?

Accepted Answer

Unsure of question..: I am not sure of what surgery you had. If you show too much gum you should perhaps consult with your dentist. If you do not have one I would seek one online who has very good reviews. At times gums can be re-contoured in some way. Perhaps the lip can be moved as well by an oral surgeon or plastic surgeon. Some options do exist; however, the dentists/doctors need to see what is going on.
