Question
Medical marijuana has been used for pain management, however, it is still considered an illicit substance by law. It would be a good idea to talk to your medical doctor about pain management options before using a substance that has been shown to be addictive. Research has also shown a link to lung cancer which is a risk you would take by using the substance. Have you considered other forms of alternative medicine? There are other options such as chiropractic medicine, acupuncture, or meditation. Again, it depends on what your medical condition is so a conversation with your medical doctor should take place to see your options are. Good luck.
