Do edibles cause vasoconstriction?

Question

Asked for Female, 37 Years

I am having surgery in 1 month. I occasionally smoke marijuana and have been advised to stop 3 weeks prior and 6 weeks after surgery due to the fact that it may cause vasoconstriction and slow healing. My question is do marijuana edibles also cause vasoconstriction, or is it only worrisome when smoked?
