Asked By:dreamer456 in Cork, County Cork, Ireland

I'm noticing that some surgeons use packing and others don't. Would it be in my best interest to find a surgeon who doesn't use it? I'm concerened about pain and discomfort during the recovery period. I quit smoking cigarettes 4 weeks ago in peperation to book surgery but am still smoking cannabis.....suppose the cannabis needs to go now too? How soon after surgery could I safely smoke it again? Thank you in advance
