Sore Throat After Kissing, No Other Sexual Contact. Reason?
Hi! I am seeing this guy periodically over the last year and noticed that following kissing him, I develop a sore throat (this past time a sore throat and ear ache). There was no other sexual contact. I went to doctor today and strep throat was ruled out. No fever and no other symptoms. Is there another condition that can explain this?
Thanks
