Five diseases that can be contracted through kissing

Kissing is a therapeutic action for one's mental and emotional health, however according to Health line, there are five diseases that can be transmitted through it

Kissing is one of life's most private acts, which is typically characterized as simply pressing or caressing one's lips against another person's or an item.



While couples in a relationship or marriage are usually seen doing it, parents and their younger children can also do it.

 

Kissing is a therapeutic action for one's mental and emotional health, however according to Health line, there are five diseases that can be transmitted through it:

 

1. Gum disease

 

Spitting saliva between two persons who are kissing can cause this condition, often known as "Gum Disease."

 

Cavities may also develop as a result of possible bacterial interaction that could take place during the process.

 

2. Contaminated Mononucleosis

 

The most typical name for this condition, according to Mayo Clinic, is "Kissing Disease." Its primary symptom is fatigue, which can sporadically result in enlarging lymph nodes and a sore throat.

 

3. Meningitis

 

This ailment is a viral illness that can occasionally be caused by the herpes virus, according to Dr. Chris Carpenter of Michigan.

 

HPV is actually possible to contract it from someone who has it from kissing someone who already has it.

 

4. Syphilis

 

The development of mouth sores is the main symptom of this extremely contagious STD.

 

Although HSV isn't typically contracted by kissing, its increased frequency among people shows that it can occasionally spread through kissing.

 

5. Herpes

 

Herpes simplex 1 (HSV-1), often known as oral herpes, is more likely to be acquired from kissing someone who has an open sore in their mouth.
