6 Diseases You Can Get From Kissing by landmark86(op): 8:43pm On Jan 10, 2020
Kissing is a mixture of chemicals, textures, and tastes that can enhance the attraction or derail it. It triggers your brain to release some chemicals that keep you in a good mood by igniting the pleasure centers of the brain. These chemicals include oxytocin , dopamine , and serotonin, which can make you feel euphoric and encourage feelings of affection and bonding. It also lowers your cortisol (stress hormone) levels'.

An intimate 10 second kissing can transfer over 80 million bacteria, as such no one is exempt from the disease-spreading dangers of kissing.

Below are 6 potential scary diseases or illnesses you can develop from kissing your partner.

1. Polio
Polio is an acute viral infectious disease of the nervous system. The virus can affect the nerves and may lead to partial or full paralysis

Sign and symptoms

a). A mild form or abortive polio which is characterized by clinical symptoms ranging from upper respiratory tract infections (fever and sore throat), nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrea and in some cases influenza-like illnesses.
b). Non-paralytic polio which presents manifestations like stiffness of neck, back and or legs.
c). Paralytic polio which causes flaccid paralysis. It is characterized by asymmetric paralysis, weakness of muscles, respiratory arrest and even death.

2. Mumps

Mumps formerly known as epidemic parotitis a distinctive and generally benign systemic viral infection that affects the salivary glands, causing them to swell.

Signs and symptoms

Following the mean incubation period, symptomatic mumps begins typically with a fever, headache, muscle aches, malaise and anorexia (loss of appetite) . Recovering from mumps takes about two weeks, and treatment usually focuses on relieving the symptoms.

3. INFLUENZA

Influenza , commonly known as the flu , is an infectious disease caused by an influenza virus.

Signs and Symptoms

The most common symptoms include: high fever, runny nose, sore throat , muscle and joint pain , headache , coughing , and feeling tired .These symptoms typically begin 2 days after exposure to the virus and most last less than a week. The cough, however, may last for more than two weeks. Most people recover on their own in less than two weeks. The flu is a highly seasonal disease that can often be prevented by getting an annual flu vaccine.

4. RUBELLA
Rubella aslo known as “German measles” is an exanthemous infection caused by a rubivirus. It is typically a mild infection that goes away within one week with or without treatment.

Signs and Symptoms

Symptomatic rubella usually manifests in the symptoms such as pink or reddish facial rashes, mild fever, swollen and tender lymph nodes, runny or stuffy nose, headache, muscle pain and inflamed red eyes.
The use of live attenuated vaccine is commercially available to prevent rubella-caused embryopathies and provide lifelong immunity.

5. INFECTIOUS MONONUCLEOSIS

Infectious mononucleosis or glandular fever popularly knowns as kissing disease , is an infection usually caused by the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV). While usually caused by Epstein–Barr virus, also known as human herpesvirus 4, which is a member of the herpes virus family , a few other viruses may also cause the disease.

Signs and Symptoms

Symptoms are very similar to those of the flu and include a fever, sore throat, fatigue, muscle weakness and swollen lymph glands. The infection and related symptoms usually last for one to two months. Young people between the ages of 15 and 30 and those who regularly come into contact with a lot of people are the most at risk. While no treatment for mononucleosis exists, resting, staying hydrated and taking over-the-counter pain medications often help.

6. GINGIVITIS

Gingivitis is a common and mild form of gum disease (periodontal disease) that causes irritation, redness and swelling of gingiva, the part of gum around the base of teeth. It’s important to take gingivitis seriously and treat it promptly. Gingivitis can lead to much more serious gum disease called periodontitis and tooth loss.

Signs and Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of gingivitis include Swollen or puffy gums, Dusky red or dark red gums, Gums that bleed easily during tooth brush or floss Bad breath, Receding gums, Tender gums.
If you notice any signs and symptoms of gingivitis, schedule an appointment with your dentist. The sooner you seek care, the better your chances of reversing damage from gingivitis and preventing its progression to periodontitis.

Influenza and Rubela have the same symptoms as HIV.

When you have symptoms of HIV, do not conclude yet, it could just be something else

But las las, something must kill a man.

Do not allow anything limit you. Live a free life. Kiss freely, do skin to skin and enjoy your life.

Las las all of us go finally die.
