Limited data: There is limited and conflicting data regarding marijuana use and stroke recovery. Some studies suggest there may be a benefit, while others show no such relationship. Hence, there are no definitive recommendations that can be made. However, there are data regarding the effects of smoking, which is quite clear - smoking is bad for you. That much is clear.
