A member asked:

Doctor cleared me from having concussion. i passed the impact test. 3 weeks since injury. can i smoke marijuana?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Marijuana: use has nothing to do with a concussion. Will not give you permission to smoke this drug which has its own health risks and limited studies to show any medicinal benefit beyond anecdotal.
