Can Medical Marijuana Be Used For Pain After Hip Replacement?

Hello, I have had hip replacement, a vasicual fibular graft. I still suffer from pain when I am active. The doctors here want me to use pain meds such as oxy20 mg for example. The side effects from all the pain meds have caused issues for me. The bone disorder is AVN, I have used marijuana a couple times and have gotten great results without the side effects. Can THC replace these addictive drugs, and is medical marijuana a option for people with bone and nerve problems
