Q: Smoking weed after tonsillectomy
asked by: karvel on January 28th, 2009

Being 18 years old, I was recently given a tonsillectomy due to "giant tonsils". The procedure went ok til' the sixth day, when one of the sutures began bleeding, leading to a big loss of blood (almost 1 lt) that led to a second surgery to get new sutures, followed by 8 days recovering in the hospital (the loss of blood also provoked anemia). Now, it's been 5 days since I left the hospital and am feeling much better (the doctor says the wound healing is almost complete).
Now, before the surgery I used to smoke both tobacco and weed, but of course I've quit since. But what I want to know is if smoking weed would make any harm to my throat or where the tonsils used to be. Could smoking weed cause another bleeding? It's been a long, difficult recovering, so I wouldn't like to risk. Thanks!

smoking weed for the first time
I smoked weed for the first time and it has been over a week that I have lost my sense of touch, smell, and taste. What does this mean?

Use a vaporizer, im smoking right now as we speak after my Eagles syndrome surgery, really helps me not take too many extra pain pills, if u dont have a vape take 1 or 2 hits, thats it... you dont want inflammation
