On October 14, 2007, a reader asked the following question:
Question: “I breathed in some mold… what should I do?”
Answer:
When dealing with mold remediation or clean up, personal protection and safety are extremely important.
Mold exposure can cause severe illness depending upon the amount of mold and time exposed.
Are you experiencing any side affects such as difficulty breathing, skin rash, or trouble seeing?
If so, definitely make an appointment with your doctor asap.
Depending upon the amount of exposure experienced, you might want to ask your doctor’s advice in any case. Remember for future reference to always wear Personal Protective Equipment.
