I am sorry, the word Pot should have been marijuana, the rest was correct thank you.
Brief Answer:
Avoid marijuana as it causes severe dependence
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case.
Due to scoliosis there can be reduced disc space leading to spinal cord impingement
Due to compression of this nerve root there is pain in your hip and foot.
I will advise you to do MRI whole spine screening.
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started.
Till time, avoid lifting weights, Sit with support to back. You can consult physiotherapist for help.
Physiotherapy like ultrasound and interferential therapy will give quick relief.
I will advise to check your vit B12 and vit D3 level.
Avoid marijuana as it causes severe dependence and then tolerance.
If required epidural steroid will help in reducing pain.
