I'm post op 1 week and just curious if I eat a marijuana cookie, can it cause harm to the healing of my surgery. I do understand smoking cigarettes and marijuana smoke can cause corbon monoxide poisoning which is damaging because of how the blood is affected but unclear of eating it can cause any negative outcomes.
I take low dose cannabis oil sublingually for anxiety and fibromyalgia. Do I need to stop before my tummy tuck surgery? If so, how far in advance and how long postoperatively should I not take it? What are the risks of consuming cannabis too close to surgery or too soon after surgery? Please note, I never smoke or vape any substances, my consumption is exclusively swallowed in oil form.
I am going for a full tummy tuck, muscle repair for a diastatis recti in March. I'm in Colorado where it's legal. I have never tried marijuana but I have heard good things about it regarding medicinal purposes. Would it be appropriate to utilize vaporized or oral marijuana post surgery for pain control? I don't know if its been studied in plastic surgery patients since the legalization of it is rather new. I figured this might be an intriguing question as I cannot find any information on it.
Will marijuana/THC affect the Tummy Tuck surgery or anesthesia? I have heard this and I was curious. I'm not a user but I want to know from a doctor because you never know what you can trust just looking something up online. Does it matter if the person is a heavy smoker of it or just every once in a while smoker? If it does affect it, why? I'm curious because I know there is medical use out there for some patient.
I recently had a Tummy Tuck where my Doctor said i didn't need any Muscle work done, cause i was already in great shape, just had loose skin. This was about a week ago today. Am i able to smoke marijuana or have a smoke? I don't know how long i am supposed to wait before i am able to do any of this.
