Suggest Treatment For Coxsackie Virus Infection

So I ve had coxsackie only in my mouth for about 5 weeks now and I m getting impatient to kiss my boyfriend. It s coming to the end and I only have about 3 almost healed bumps. In the early stages I thought I just had a kankersore and I kissed him and he still did not get sick. Would it be okay for me to kiss him

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The coxsackie virus infection can be treated with antiviral drugs like acyclovir or pencyclovir. You can also use topical antiviral drugs. Do not kiss your boy friend because the saliva or blood may shed the virus and even he can get infected. Consult a oral physician and get it evaluated.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
