A member asked:
What permanent damage can marijuana use lead to?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Marijuana: There is no medical or scientific evidence that simple use of marijuana causes any long term or permanent damage. Now, that does not address those who have the disease of addiction where ongoing use of any mind altering substance can lead to risk taking, depression and other serious consequences.
