Health Issues from Increased Mold Exposure

Increased exposure to black mold can lead to both short and long term impacts on your health. While mold itself isn’t poisonous, it produces toxins called mycotoxins which harm over an extended period of time. People with respiratory issues or weakened immune systems are at a higher risk of experiencing these effects.

The short-term symptoms of increased Black Mold exposure includes:

  • Coughing
  • Stuffy/Runny Nose
  • Irritated Eyes
  • Sore Throat
  • Nosebleeds

If you are experiencing any of these at a more frequent level, it’s very important to consider that mold may be present in your home. Here are some of the more long term effects. Again, people with underlying health conditions will experience accelerated symptoms.

  • Persistent Coughing
  • Headaches
  • Frequent Chest Colds
  • Breathing Issues
  • Allergic Reactions
  • Sinus Issues
  • General Fatigue

There are even some rare cases where long term levels of these toxins will lead to more severe symptoms that involve cognitive functions such as:

  • Memory Loss
  • Lack of Concentration
  • Light Sensitivity
  • Anxiety
  • Nerve Issues
  • Cramps

The main symptoms of mold pointing can be stemmed from previous respiratory issues, which makes diagnosis difficult. If a doctor suspects that someone’s symptoms may be due to inhalation of mold, they will order that the home be tested, along with their patient being tested with allergy and blood tests to see if the individual has a mold allergy.

During this test, a healthcare professional drops a small amount of liquid containing mold onto the skin, then prick the skin with a small needle. If the person is allergic to the mold, a rash will usually occur.
