A hickey, also known as a love bite or bruise, is a mark on the skin caused by sucking or kissing it. Hickeys are usually caused by passionate kissing or necking, and they can range in size from a small dot to a large bruise. While hickeys are generally not harmful, they can be painful and embarrassing.
There are a few different ways to make a hickey. One way is to suck on the skin until it turns red and swollen. Another way is to kiss the skin hard and repeatedly. The harder you suck or kiss, the darker and larger the hickey will be. Hickeys usually fade away within a few days, but they can sometimes last for weeks.
