Love bite health risk: People often take the love byte or hickey, which is considered a common way of expressing love, but do you know that this small mark can make a big impact on your health? Experts say that love bite can not just a romantic scar, but also serious health risk of which is the most dangerous at risk of brain stroke.
Hickey is generally considered an innocent love expression, but medical experts have warned that giving a love byte on the neck can make a blood clot or a pre -made clot can withdraw from its place, which can cause stroke by reaching the brain. Let’s know important health information to love bite and possible complications to it.
Hikki means love byte is formed on the skin when a part is intensely sucked or cut. This causes the superficial blood vessels (blood vessels) of that place to burst and the blood freezes under the surface of the skin, causing red, blue or purple scar. In medical terms, it is known by names like acchimosis, hematoma, petichia or erythema. Although these scars disappear normally in a few days, but in some cases they can prove to be dangerous for health.
1. Carotid Sinus Reflex Activation
According to experts, "Near the neck is a group of nerve cells called carotid sinuses. When sharp pressure is put on this place, such as during hicckey, these cells are activated and can reduce heart rate or blood pressure. This can cause conditions like dizziness, fainting or fall."
2. Danger of stroke in the brain
Experts say, "If there is already a blood clot (blood clot) in someone’s neck, then due to love bite, he can reach the brain and cause stroke. This situation is very serious and should not be ignored."
3. Blood vessels burst and bleeding
Due to intense pressure, the walls of blood vessels can burst, which can create blood flow and a new clot. If the person is already sensitive or taking a blood thinner, the situation can be even more dangerous.
In 2011, a woman from New Zealand got paralyzed after the love byte. Medical examination revealed that there was a blood clot in his mind, which was considered to be the cause of stroke. Even in Denmark, a 35 -year -old woman stroked 12 hours after Hickey and weakened in the right part of her body.
According to experts, the possibility of stroke from hickey is very low, but it is not impossible. The carotid artery present in the neck, which brings blood to the brain, can form a blood clot or a pre -made clot can move towards the head. This increases the risk of brain stroke.
