I don't even smoke, but I am an advocate, especially of freedom of choice.
Anyway, if I had a medical issue, I'd be seeking out CBD oils in a heartbeat. That's where I feel the most health benefits can come from. I don't inherently feel that burning anything and inhaling the charred plant matter is good for you long term. Which is why the oils make the most sense to me. Plus, with the added information about dabs, wax, butter and oils and their effective temperature ranges, seems that end of the spectrum is sorting itself out to be the "healthier" alternative to just lighting up a joint or doing a bong rip. That's sooo old school! ;-)
