Mark359 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 hey, I started going out with this new girl a few days ago. I kissed her and since then i've had 4-5 blisters in my mouth and the skin on the side front part of my gum started bleeding. Does anyone know by any chance if i've cought a disease? Permanent or not? And what it would be called? Link to comment
sixpounder Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 could just be a kanker sore, mouthwash is your best bet Link to comment
BornToResist Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Do they look like cold sores? Usually those are just around your lips. If this is the case, then that's Herpes symplex 1...it sounds scary but it's so common. Link to comment
CarnelianButterfly Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 The Kissing Disease is actually mono, but that doesn't manifest itself as blisters. Were you just kissing or were you playing tonsil hokey? Link to comment
renaissancewoman101 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 It sounds like you have a canker sore. Those go away after a while. Link to comment
Cadence308 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 It sounds to me like you have herpes virus in the mouth and lips. Ask your girlfriend if she ever gets cold sores. They are highly contagious if you have mouth to mouth contact (kissing) or share food and drink. It sounds to me like you are having your first outbreak. Link to comment
Scotcha Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 From your description it sounds like the herpes virus and my guess would be HSV type 1. (herpes simplex virus) Judging from the severity you describe this is probably your first outbreak and it usually lasts 7-10 days. It's very contageous, when symptoms are present, and the virus will remain in your system. Most of the population has HSV-1. In fact, most people get HSV-1 as small children from adults kissing them, sharing drinks, and what-not. Most people only have the initial outbreak and the virus remains dormant. With others times of stress or even another illness can cause a recurrent outbreak. I know it might be scary to be told this but I can tell you with absolute certainty that it really isn't that big of a deal. If you do need someone to talk to though, please feel free to PM me. I'm somewhat of an expert on the subject. Link to comment
vermilion Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I don't mean to butt in on your thread but I was wondering- Can you usually tell if someone has herpes or mono? I don't want to get this so I could avoid kissing or sharing a drink with someone who has it- I mean, don't they look like pimples or something? Link to comment
SkylinesTurnstiles Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 what are canker sore?they sound really weird and did the person you kissed have cold sores? Link to comment
Mark359 Posted November 1, 2006 Author Share Posted November 1, 2006 So what r u saying? I have aids? I'm going to see the dentist tomorrow Link to comment
Mark359 Posted November 1, 2006 Author Share Posted November 1, 2006 This is the first time this happens to me... Link to comment
Anna. Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Dude, it's cool. It's probaby just cold sores. They're technically "herpes," but most folks just say you've got cold sores, it's no big deal. And I'd go to the doctor instead of the dentist. Link to comment
BornToResist Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Nobody said you had aids, geez. Just buy carmex (over the counter lip balm) or anything else that says "for cold sores) and you'll be fine in a couple days. No biggie. Link to comment
Scotcha Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Herpes, fever blisters, canker sores, cold sores.. They are all different names for the same thing. Almost everyone has them orally. It is no big deal. The strangest thing about what happened to you is that you are just getting it now because most people get it before they even know how to kiss. Link to comment
Mark359 Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 its inside my mouth not outside Link to comment
FoxLocke Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 You cannot get AIDs from kissing, just an FYI.... However, it does sound like you are suffering a herpes simplex outbreak. It is an incurable disease but you can treat the outbreaks... Goto a clinic as soon as possible... It may be just a sore, but it is better to be sure than not. Link to comment
jengh Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I don't mean to butt in on your thread but I was wondering- Can you usually tell if someone has herpes or mono? I don't want to get this so I could avoid kissing or sharing a drink with someone who has it- I mean, don't they look like pimples or something? The thing with mono is there really aren't any physical symtoms (aside from the exhaustion), and it stays in your system for a long time (sometimes a month or two), meaning one could pass the virus even after they've pretty much fully recovered. It's highly contagious. I've had it twice Herpes, it's kind of the same concept. You can still contract them even when there are no signs of an outbreak, though it's much less common than when a person has physical symtoms. Just be careful Link to comment
Mark359 Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 ](*,) Well its official... I went to the dentist and i have canker sores... FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!!! I guess thats what u get for kissing girls heh? fkin girls. Link to comment
