Kissing is a relatively intimate behavior often done between lovers, and some people may experience nausea and vomiting symptoms after kissing. There are several reasons to consider for this situation. One is physiological factors, which may be a conditioned reflex caused by irritation of the throat, or psychological factors, such as the presence of certain psychological barriers, leading to nausea and vomiting symptoms. Secondly, it is temporary hypoxia caused by kissing.
1. Physiological factors: Nausea and vomiting after kissing may be due to irritation of the throat. If the other person's tongue goes deeper, it may stimulate the throat area, stimulating the glossopharyngeal nerve and causing a pharyngeal reflex, leading to nausea and vomiting symptoms. This is a protective reflex formed by humans during long-term evolution, a normal physiological response, not caused by disease. Therefore, there is no need for treatment in this case.
2. Psychological factors: Some psychological barriers can also lead to nausea and vomiting after kissing. Currently, patients should seek psychological counseling from a psychologist and undergo certain psychological guidance to improve their mental state. If the patient and their boyfriend love each other very much, kissing is a way to express love.
3. Hypoxia: Nausea and vomiting after kissing may also be due to temporary hypoxia. Because during kissing, the heart rate accelerates, tension increases, and the respiratory rate is disrupted, leading to hypoxia. After returning to normal breathing, one may feel discomfort, such as dizziness and nausea. Nausea and vomiting after kissing with tongue contact may be due to bad breath from the other party or psychological reasons. Before kissing, both parties should brush their teeth or rinse their mouths to reduce oral odor. If there is a bad taste in the mouth after kissing, rinsing the mouth can help.
