Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion you are having upper respiratory tract infection (URTI).
URTI can cause by virus and bacteria and can spread by kissing.
So you may got infection due to kissing.
No need to worry much.
Try to follow these for URTI.
1. Avoid oily and spicy food.
2. Drink plenty of fluids. Keep yourself hydrated.
3. Take quinolone group of antibiotic.
4. Also take anti inflammatory and antihistamines.
5. Warm saline gargles 5-6 times a day.
If not improve in 5 days than get done chest x ray to rule out lower respiratory tract infection. As pseudomonas infection can also cause similar green color sputum.
