Mold Allergy Symptoms - Do You Have Any?

Mold is a nice little organism that we all come in contact with in our daily lives, it is everywhere! Each day you are exposed to at least a little bit of it. Whether it's in the air you breathe or in a piece of food that may be just a little bit older than you think. In most cases this daily contact does not cause you to have any reaction. In a person that has a Mold Allergy however, even a small amount of exposure can cause an annoying allergic reaction. Not fun.

Mold is a fungus that breaks down organic particles such as plant or animal matter. This is present outdoors and indoors. The problems with having the allergy are the mold spores that trigger a reaction such as allergic rhinitis or asthma. Also molds can produce VOCs which is the musty odor of the mold that can irritate the eyes, nose, and throat.
