Symptoms of Mold Exposure
People often mistake the symptoms of mold exposure for other things. They might think they are experiencing seasonal allergies, like hay fever. They might wonder if they are allergic to pet dander. They might think they just have a cold or sinus infection, since mold symptoms resemble those common conditions. Of course, if you realize you have a mold problem in your home, you might suspect your symptoms are related to mold. Many people don’t realize they have a mold problem until they start getting sick, though. That’s because mold often grows in places where it’s hard to spot, like inside walls, inside heating ducts, and under flooring.
Common Symptoms of Mold Exposure
The most common mold symptoms are similar to symptoms of exposure to other environmental allergens, and include things like:
A runny nose
Sinus congestion
Sneezing
Coughing
Red, itchy, watery eyes
Headaches, migraines
Sore throat
Shortness of breath
Wheezing
Feeling of tightness in the chest
Asthma attacks. Follow this link to learn more about asthma due to mold
These symptoms may begin within hours of being in a home with mold, depending on how much mold is there and what type of mold is present. Symptoms will usually get worse over time.
Mold can affect your pets as well. Here is more information on pets and mold.
Less Common Mold Symptoms
Less common symptoms of mold exposure include things like:
Respiratory infections, like pneumonia and bronchitis
Bleeding in the lungs (pulmonary hemorrhage)
Scar tissue in the lungs (caused by long-term exposure to mold)
Digestive problems
Skin rash or hives
Joint pain from mycotoxins
Depression
Fatigue
Memory loss
Difficulty concentrating
Dental issues
Hair loss
Hearing loss
Vertigo (lightheadedness or dizziness)
Heart damage
These mold poisoning symptoms may take some time to develop. People usually experience other allergy-like symptoms first. Some of these problems, like the buildup of scar tissue in the lungs, can cause life-long problems.
Treating Symptoms of Mold Exposure
Treating Symptoms of Mold Exposure
If you’re suffering from health problems related to mold exposure, there are two important components of treatment.
First, you need to see your doctor. Let your doctor know if you’ve been exposed to mold and that your symptoms may be related to mold exposure. It may affect the treatment prescribed. Your doctor may prescribe antihistamines or other medications for allergy-like symptoms. If you have infections like bronchitis or pneumonia, you’ll probably need antibiotics. If your symptoms are severe, your doctor may recommend not returning to your home until the mold can be removed.
Second, you need to have all traces of mold removed from your home. As long as you continue to be exposed to mold, you’ll probably continue to suffer from toxic mold symptoms. In fact, the symptoms will probably get worse as time goes on. Any medical treatment will be of limited effectiveness as long as you continue to be around mold.
Mold remediation is a complicated procedure and while some homeowners prefer to handle the job themselves, it’s not recommended if you’re experiencing health problems related to mold exposure. The process of removing mold stirs up the mold spores that cause symptoms, so doing the mold remediation yourself can end up making you sicker.
