Wahala…kissing Overtakes Smoking As Leading Risk For Head And Neck Cancers by Judith100: 6:44pm On Jul 28, 2015
This is serious oh. Sorry guys that loving doing then kisses, kissing has overtaken smoking and drinking as the leading risk factor for developing head and neck cancers.
According to the Head of Maxillofacial and Head and neck Surgery at the Royal Darwin Hospital, Dr Mahiban Thomas ,The humble French kiss can pass on human papilloma virus (HPV), the virus which is responsible for 70% of head and neck cancer cases. Dr Thomas said if you became infected by HPV in the oropharynx, your risk of developing head and neck cancer was 250 times higher than that of someone without the virus
While most commonly associated with cervical cancers, HPV can affect both men and women. Read more at http://judithfrank..com/2015/07/wahalakissing-overtakes-smoking-as.html
