Exposure to mold can cause respiratory problems such as difficulty breathing and tightness in the chest. In fact, some people developo scar tissue in their lungs who are around high levels of mold. This is called lung sensativity. They can sometimes recover when the mold is removed but sometimes they never recover.
If you have coughing, runny nose, irritated eyes or throat, they may be signs of a mold allergy. Note that they symptoms are also present with a common cold or other allergies, so it's tough to tell without proper diagnosis. If one has asthma, mold can exacerbate those symptoms.

These are sneezing, itching, nasal discharge, congestion and dry, scaling skin. Those people who are having mold allergies may have allergy symptoms the whole summer because of outdoor mold. Symptoms that are year-round are caused by indoor molds.
Mold spores usually are deposited on the lining of the nose and cause hay fever symptoms. They can affect the lungs when they reach there and cause asthma or another serious illness called allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.
The reactions are sometimes immediate and sometimes delayed. The symptoms often worsen in a damp or moldy room like the basement.
It is common for people to get mold allergy if they or other family members are allergic to substance like pollen or animal dancer. There are also persons who have occupations that have exposure to mold and they are at higher risk of developing these kind of allergy. These occupations are farmers, dairymen, loggers, bakers, mill workers, carpenters, greenhouse employees, winemakers and furniture repairers.
