marijuana after hydrocelectomy
I had a hydrocelectomy 3 days ago and am wondering if it would be safe to smoke a little bit of marijuana. I ask because ive have heard it can lead to the wound healing slowly,and blood clots. I havent found any definitive answer online. By the way the pain has been almost non-existent after the first day so havent needed vicodin since yesterday.

Since you had the hydrocelectomy just 3 days prior, hence it is better to avoid smoking marijuana for some days till there is complete healing. You can smoke marijuana only after consulting your operating surgeon.
