Is medical marijuana given for avascular necrosis?

Not exactly: I know of no studies showing the benefit of marijuana on avascular necrosis and can't really imagine how it would reverse tbe disease state. Some might argue a role as a pain agent but this would have to be considered in the light of any other meds that have been used.
