Can smoking marijuana worsen back pains?
About a month or two ago I started experiencing terrible back pains. Now, I'm only 17 so my doctor thought it was really unusual. After x-rays and blood tests, she came to the conclusion that it is most likely my bed that is causing my back pain (aching of the middle/left side of my back, stretching around through to my ribs, etc.).
I smoke marijuana around 2-3 times per week socially. I've noticed that before my back pain started a few months ago, weed helped me sleep. Now, every time I smoke weed (usually at night), during the night while I'm sleeping, I'll wake up at unusual times with this terrible back pain.
I still get it sometimes when I don't smoke weed, but it happens EVERY time, even when I'm not sleeping in my bed.
Is this just a coincidence or can weed actually worsen my back pains?

Weed cannot worsen back pains. If anything, in the moment it should give you some relief.

different ways of taking marijuana help in different ways. for example, if you eat it, like in a brownie mixture (lol), it takes pain away that's happening in your body from the inside. understand? so, possibly, yes. because you're smoking it, it can be causing you more pain since bud heightens some of your senses.
try a different method of using marijuana?

Whether its weed or not.. Quit smoking that **** seriously. You're gunna be a dunbass by the time you're 20. Besides what do you need that s.hit for anyway. You cant function right with anyway so there's no legitimate reason to be using it.

no, but it could make you ignore the pain and delay an operation that is easier to do before it becomes a big problem.
