Hickey Leads To The Death Of A Teenage Boy In Mexico City An NYDailyNews report warns that aggressive foreplay could actually be fatal… A hickey may have killed a Mexico City teen, who suffered a fatal stroke not long after his girlfriend gave him the kiss of death. Julio Macias Gonzalez, 17, went into convulsions and died while having dinner with his family, according to Mexican news site Hoyestado.com. His 24-year-old make-out partner, who has not been identified, is reportedly in hiding. If you’ve never necked before, hickeys are caused when a someone sucks on or aggressively kisses someone’s skin hard enough to break the blood vessels located beneath the surface of the skin. According to local media reports, doctors believe that the suction which forms the tell-tale mark also created a blood clot that traveled to the young man’s brain and caused the massive stroke. A similar love bite famously caused a 44-year-old New Zealand woman to lose movement in her left arm in 2010. Emergency responders couldn’t figure out what was causing her stroke — until they noticed a hickey on the right side of her neck. They concluded that the aggressive kissing session had damaged a major artery and formed a blood clot that traveled to her heart and caused a minor stroke. R.I.P. to Julio Gonzalez, that’s a heartbreaking and totally unexpected way to lose your life. Image via Shutterstock
