How long does it take my lungs to recover from black mold poisoning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The poisoning from black molds (unless in an industrial or farming occupation) is not a common problem. Even if you are exposed to the toxins, the effects usually disappear within days after the exposure. On the other hand, if you have become sensitized or allergic to the molds, the effects may linger forever.
