Side Effects of Mold
Mold is an unwanted substance, yet too commonly found in buildings and households. Black mold is one of the most common forms, however, there are other kinds to be aware of. Black mold typically grows in moist places, such as shower tile. It has a gooey texture and a strong odor. Alternaria, Cladosporium, and Penicillium are other common forms of mold.
Any type can cause major health issues, and should be inspected immediately by a professional upon noticing. Exposure can cause fever-like symptoms, asthma attacks, allergic reactions, chronic sinus infections and lung inflammation. Testing mold in a lab can uncover the exact type of mold, which can help with diagnosing health issues. Despite the type, mold always needs to be removed.
