Can Bad Breath Be A Contagious Infection?
A week earlier I kissed someone, whose breath had a rather unpleasant fruity smell. I thought it might have been something he had eaten. But the next day his breath smelled the same even after brushing the teeth. Now since yesterday when I breath into my hands, I can feel the exact same smell. Could it be some contagious infection?

Hello,
I understand your concern.
I am Dr Arun Tank, Infectious diseases specialists, responding to you.
No it is not a contagious. It is not a infection or disease. So it won't spread. You can give him mouth freshener whenever you are kissing him.
I will be glad to answer your further query.
Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
Wish you a best health.
Thank you,
