I had an esophagus tear from excessive throwing up, and it caused a slight pneumothorax. how long until i can smoke marijuana. i know i have to wait a long time but at what point can i start again?

Talk to pediatrician: Talk to your pediatrician. Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome has to be ruled out before ever thinking to smoke marijuana again. An esophageal tear is a life threatening complication and a clear cause for your nausea and vomiting has to be found first. At your age the risk of using marijuana outweighs the benefits of it.
