Nightclub Kiss Horror: 22-Year-Old’s Battle with Infectious ‘Kissing Disease’

Daniel Kim Views  

A story has emerged about a young British woman who contracted the so-called kissing disease after kissing a man she met at a club.

According to The Sun, on the 28th of last month, Neve McRavey, 22, went to a club to celebrate her university graduation earlier this month and kissed a man she met there.

The following morning, Neve woke up with a sore throat that was so severe that she struggled to swallow her saliva. She immediately sought medical attention and was diagnosed with tonsillitis at the hospital, where she was prescribed antibiotics.

Despite taking the medication, her condition did not improve. Instead, her symptoms worsened with fever and vomiting, making it difficult for her to walk correctly.

It was only after Neve’s second visit to the hospital that she was diagnosed with a disease called kissing disease.

Kissing disease, also known as mononucleosis, is an inflammatory disease primarily caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, one of the herpes viruses. As the Epstein-Barr virus can be transmitted through saliva during a kiss, it is called kissing disease.

The incubation period is between 4 and 7 weeks. Once infected, the virus remains in the body for life. Although the disease rarely recurs after the initial infection, it can still be transmitted to others.

Symptoms of kissing disease include abdominal pain, eye pain, muscle pain, fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph nodes.

Complete recovery from this disease is not possible, and the basic treatment is to get plenty of rest and stay hydrated. Medication and fluid therapy may also be utilized depending on the individual’s immune status and the severity of the symptoms.
