1 Hoarseness is an abnormal change in the voice. 2  The most common cause of hoarseness is acute laryngitis.  The underlying cause of hoarseness can usually be diagnosed by a health care professional based on the patient's history and physical exam.
The effects usually stop after 3 or 4 hours. Smoking pot can increase your heart rate by as much as two times for up to 3 hours. Thatâs why some people have a heart attack right after they use marijuana. It can increase bleeding, lower blood pressure, and affect your blood sugar, too.
A 2008 study, for example, suggested that smoking marijuana may reduce the risk of tobacco-associated lung cancer, calculating that people who smoke both marijuana and tobacco have a lower risk of cancer than those who smoke only tobacco (though still a higher risk than non-smokers).
