Can I very occasionally have a little edible or use vaporizer pen after gastric bypass surgery ?

dreambaker1986
I know I have been told that I can't smoke medical marijuana after surgery due to the smoke getting into the pouch. I am wondering what harm an edible or cap pen can do if there is no smoke getting in my pouch and lungs. Just curious and thanks in advance.
