Hi.

I had gone thorough your query.

It should be avoided until full recovery after surgery.It may affect your body and immune system that can lead to complications.

Marijuana contain cannabis and it psychoactive substance. Long term use of it can lead to physical and psychological ill health.
Cannabis addiction can affect reproductive system too.

So it would be better to stop smoking and live healthy life.

I hope i have answered your query.

Thank you.
