What Could Pain In Chest After Taking Medical Marijuana?
I'm a 43yr old female.I use medical marijuana for cronic pain, arthritis, and scoliosis. I had a hysterectomy 1/5/12. I also had a emergency tooth extraton last week. I'm currently taking 2,400mg of Ibuprofen,15mg Vicoden and 1,200mg of clindamycin. After taking one puff I started feeling chest pains. could this be a reaction?
Hi Ms.. I read ur question, the description of your pain is unlikely to be reaction but it is like whats called pleurtic pain due to inflammation in the pleural membrane or due to some muscle strain or inflammation of the chst cage muscles , however it is benign conditions you better continue ibuprofen for toltal one week, not advisable for long term use..it is good if you can quit smoking.. Get Well soon.
