Valentine Kiss of Death
By
Can kissing your lover cause them serious harm or even death? Kissing has left some of us weak in the knees, but for some it almost cost them their life.
In one example, the kissing sessions it started very innocently. A male student began to passionately kiss his lover and gently suck on her neck. Commonly referred to as giving a “hickey”. The suction of his “love bit” caused bruising and physical trauma to his lover’s blood vessels. A small clot was formed and eventually ended up in her brain, causing her to have a minor stroke.
Having a blood clot develop and move to your brain from receiving a hickey is rarity, but oddly injuries during the heat of passion are not all that rare. Take care when kissing, touching or grabbing soft tissues areas of the body especially around a major artery or vein.
