A passionate kiss can swallow a lot of bacteria

A female graduate student at a French medical school pointed out in her graduation thesis that a typical French kiss can cause a person to swallow 250 bacteria at the same time. How many problems can a kiss cause? In just 45 seconds of kissing, in addition to consuming 12 calories, what chain reactions will affect health?

1. Periodontal problems

The mouth is the place where the most bacteria grow in the human body. Although most germs cannot escape the disinfection of stomach acid, many bacteria that slip through the net can still cause health concerns.

When kissing passionately, the state of ecstasy often makes people lose their mind in an instant. In such a situation, the most common thing that happens is that the other person's mouth is accidentally bitten or sucked. Xie Yinghua pointed out that it is no longer just an exchange of saliva, but a state of blood and water mixing. Especially when there is a wound in your mouth, it is easy to cause diseases such as periodontal disease and gingivitis. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce close contact with others when there is a wound in your mouth.

2. Ruptured eardrum

Even if you are not kissing the ears, if you kiss too passionately and enthusiastically, it will cause an imbalance in the pressure on the eardrum. Under the fluctuating pressure, cracks may appear or even rupture the eardrum.

Although this type of traumatic rupture of the eardrum can cause a hearing loss of about 20 to 30 decibels, it can heal on its own after treatment by a doctor. However, it is still recommended that you should control your emotions a little when kissing with tongue, and do not cover the other person's ears with your hands when kissing, and give each other more breathing space.

3. Fatal allergies

Is it that exaggerated? It was just a kiss, how could you end up in the emergency room the next moment? That’s because the other person ate the food you are allergic to beforehand.

Because when you eat, there will be some food residues in the mouth. If the mouth is not cleaned, these residues must take more than 8 hours to be completely decomposed. Therefore, if you have finished your meal, it is best to brush your teeth or rinse your mouth before kissing, or change to kissing the cheek.

Doctors also recommend that if you experience difficulty breathing or physical discomfort during or after kissing, it is best to seek medical attention as soon as possible, even if you have never experienced such a situation before.

4. Gastrointestinal ulcer

Don’t think that your stomach starts to ache because you are too excited and nervous. In fact, it is the bacteria under the kiss that are causing the problem.

Since the dirt attached to the teeth contains a large number of Helicobacter pylori and Helicobacter pylori and other bacteria, when these bacteria enter the body with saliva, they will secrete toxins that damage the intestinal and stomach mucosal tissues, leading to the occurrence of diseases. Although generally speaking, people with bacteria in their dental plaque are mostly those who have their own health concerns, but brushing your teeth before kissing, rinsing your mouth after kissing, and not swallowing a lot of your partner's saliva when kissing are all ways to protect yourself after kissing.

5. Herpes virus

Inexplicably, small blisters that hurt and itch appeared at the corners of your mouth, and when you squeezed them, they kept growing more and more. Yes, it was kissing that gave you herpes.

Generally speaking, herpes simplex is more common in young children with weak immunity. These small blisters and ulcers at the corners of the mouth can be cured after a week of treatment, but in fact these stubborn herpes viruses will still lurk in the body, waiting to attack again when your resistance becomes weak.

Health reminder: If you find that your partner has small blisters or ulcers at the corners of his mouth, don't kiss him. Although he may still transmit the herpes virus to you after he recovers, at least the amount of bacteria that can be spread will be countless times less!
