Moldy house causes asthma


Mould triggers asthma, visible mould in homes is associated with the beginning of wheezing in children, mould and leaks may be be found in the bedrooms and homes of children who had just started wheezing compared to the children who had never wheezed.

The more mould, the greater the risk that children would start wheezing. The use of extractor fans, avoiding drying of clothes inside the room and opening the windows for fresh air may reduce the growth of mold.

Asthma is a condition that affects the airways,common symptoms include wheezing, coughing, breathlessness and having a tight chest.

 Researchers assessed the homes of children showing symptoms of asthma and discovered that condensation, damp and mould are present in their  rooms, mold will make asthma worse if you already have it and increase the risk of having it if you don't.

 Mould and leaks were more likely to be found in the bedrooms and homes of children who had just started wheezing compared to the children who had never wheezed.
