Doctors 'recommend cannabis use'
One in six people who take cannabis for pain relief say their doctor advised them to use it, a survey suggests.
The UK survey, published in the International Journal of Clinical Practice, asked just under 1,000 people about their use of the drug.
Almost 70% said cannabis significantly relieved their symptoms - 45% said it worked better than prescribed drugs.
But the British Medical Association said it had never heard of a doctor recommending the drug.
