Can I smoke marijuana with dry sockets?

I had my 2 lower impacted wisdom teeth removed on Tues of last week and even though I followed every instruction to a tee I still ended up with dry socket in both areas. I refrained from smoking marijuana to avoid a dry socket but since I already have 2 would it be okay for me to start up again? Thanks in advance for any answers :)

No cigarette smoking,alcohol consumption, and drugs,etc. these activities tend to delay wound healing and promote infection.
