Question 1

could smoking weed cause mouth sores?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: I wouldn't rule it out. The heat, drying, and smoke irritation may be enough to cause sores in your case.

Question 2

i haven't been smoking weed but my friends have i have to take a mouth swab monday 7/20 will i test positive?

Accepted Answer

Shouldn't: You will probably come up negative.  It should be fine.

Question 3

does smoking weed with a mouth ulcer give you cancer?

Accepted Answer

Oral cancer: I suspect you're asking about oral, versus lung, cancer. To my knowledge, there's no evidence that having an oral ulcer when you smoke marijuana puts you at any greater risk of developing oral cancer. However, the oral ulcer itself could represent a problem. If it doesn't heal in 2 weeks, see an oral surgeon. Plus, don't smoke. It's not good for your health.

Question 4

how to cure naturally dark lips for male? not caused due to smoking...

Accepted Answer

Good question: I'm not a dermatologist.  I would expect it is secondary to melanocytes in the dermis.  These melanocytes can be reduced in numbers by freezing like they do for warts and other skin conditions.   I think it would be safe on the lips but this warrants a dermatology consult.

Question 5

does smoking weed cause schizophrenia?

Accepted Answer

No: However it could unmask a latent schizophrenic process. "weed" at times causes euphoria and some feelings  of paranoia. Hallucinations are not unusual either. Both are components of schizophrenia. In the 70's IV sedative hypnotics were used if one suspected schizophrenia but it wasn't clear. It would at times unmask schizophrenia symptoms of paranoia & hallucinations. Ethically it isn't done now.

Question 6

what would cause more wrinkles 25 puffs of a cigg or smoking weed almost everyday for 5 years?

Accepted Answer

Why use either?: You don’t need either and not just so you don’t get wrinkles but because both put you at risk for other  medical conditions that could potentially be fatal. I don’t think research has been done specifically to address this.

Question 7

could smoking weed causes shortness of breath?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes, both short term and long term use can do this.  Especially if you have asthma or COPD (emphysema).  Just don't do it if you get short of breath when you do it.  Chronically, (no pun intended) it can cause other problems as well.

Question 8

can smoking weed cause aniexty disorder?

Accepted Answer

Complicated: Weed does cause anxiety and can be quite severe in many people. Probably worse if you have an underlying predisposition or anxiety that can be exacerbated. Some users have mental health problems for years after using.Also causes depersonalization in some. However many people react differently. Unpredictable at this point.

Question 9

does smoking weed cause boils?

Accepted Answer

: Boils are caused by staph bacteria which can colonize skin but not cause infection or boils until they invade the skin. Smoking weed isn't the cause.

Question 10

what could be reason that i can't see colors after smoking weed?

Accepted Answer

Can't be good sign: I honestly don't know the reason why you can't see colors after smoking weed. I've never heard of that particular side effect. It seems like a good reason to think twice about continuing to smoke weed. Despite the common misconception that marijuana is harmless, having this side effect brings home the fact that marijuana is not doing good things to your brain. I wish you the best for your health.
