The answer is yes.
Cannabis, commonly known as weed or marijuana, is one of the most abused drugs in all countries. It can be used through smoking, eating (added as an ingredient to food), or drinking (brewed as tea). Everything that we ingest has an effect on our body. Ultimately, when abused, it can lead to damaging effects just like any other drug. While people take it for varied reasons, be it medical or recreational, one must be aware of the effects of using and halting the use of weed. What makes people addicted to is the chemical Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). It is responsible for the “high” feelings and the stimulation.
While using marijuana, you may suffer from Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. It is a condition defined by vomiting, nausea, and abdominal paid. Doctors say that by fully halting the use of weed, the pain associated with this syndrome can go away. The Mayo Clinic researchers found out that long-term use of cannabis is characterized by abdominal pain and severe cyclic nausea and vomiting. It is said that relief can be had by taking hot baths or showers.
Heavy users of weed have reported to experience nausea and vomiting in the morning. For each act of vomiting, there is a corresponding pain in the abdominal area. Of course, when you vomit, you expel from your body food that is supposed to be digested and broken down into nutrients. The cyclical vomiting that occurs as a result of cannabis use is detrimental to health. Note that the vomiting has the tendency to be cyclical—that means it is regular, or that it happens on a consistent basis.
When one stops using marijuana, he/she will experience varied symptoms such as anxiety, depression, seating, fever and chills, and headaches. His/her daily functioning can also be beset by stomach problems. Stomach problems can be in different forms: constipation, loose-bowel movement, and others. One study theorized that cannabinoids can slow down motility in the intestines. This can leave you constipated. And this is also an expected outcome should you decide to quit smoking weed.
However, regardless of whether or not you stop smoking weed, your body will still experience diverse kinds of pain associated with stomach problems, which can manifest in vomiting. The only difference is that when you stop, the damaging effects are stopped from growing into something more than what it already is. Instant stoppage of marijuana abuse does not mean instant reprieve from the pain. Withdrawal takes days and even months, depending on your prior usage. Nonetheless, not everyone experiences withdrawal symptoms in an excruciating degree. Again, what needs to be emphasized is that these eventually depend on how much abuse you have done to your body before you decided to stop.
These bodily pains can be treated with proper therapy. It is strongly advised that you consult a medical doctor with regard to the necessary steps to be taken for permanent relief and wellness. You have to be wary of all the symptoms. Do not take the pain flippantly.
