A member asked:

Help docs! my son has been exposed to stachybotrys mold?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Look for symptoms: If your son has symptoms he should seek medical attention; exposure to fungi/molds can cause infections, asthma, chronic runny nose, pneumonitis, and sinusitis. If he is symptom free, stay away from or clean up the mold.
