What causes swelling in eyes and lips after smoking marijuana?
Patient: Hi, I was wondering if marijuana causes your face to swell. After smoking recently my eyes and my lips swelled up severely. I have only had my eyes swell up just a bit in my past smoking experiences. I am a chronic smoker. I took a detox pill and have been working out all day in result my swelling has gone down quite a bit. Doctor: HI, thanks for using healthcare magicIt is possible that you are allergic to it. Allergies can occur to any chemical agent including normal traditional medications and also to marijuana.It would be best to avoid future use since continued use of an allergen would cause the allergic response to progressively worsen.An oral antihistamine would help decrease the allergic response.I hope this helps
