It Can: The major metabolite of cannabis can show up in blood or urine tests. It depends on how much is used and how long between usage and the test.

If tested for.: This would depend on the setting of the physical. In some settings, such as on admission to a psychiatric unit, urine or blood screening for substances is ordered. A routine physical exam, however, usually does not include testing for substances.
