Does smoking weed slow down a healing process of a sprained ankle?

Marijuana (Weed) is a pyschoaffecting drug, with repercussions across the neural system. If it is a prescripted weed (Medical reasons, so a once off thing) then it should not affect the healing process, but if it is taken continuously before or during the process it will affect the healing as it makes the body weaker and increases stress levels, making injuries slow their healing.
