Children can develop asthma when they are exposed to mold.
Mold can easily affect a child’s ability to have fun and play with others. In fact, mold can be severely dangerous to children with asthma or other lung infections. Although a mild asthma attack is unlikely to cause any permanent damage, one terrible episode may just be enough to inhibit breathing. Therefore, it is important for all parents to understand the severe health dangers of mold on their children.
Symptoms Of Mild, Moderate, And Severe Asthma Attacks
There is a range of asthma attacks that can occur. From mild to moderate to severe, mold can be a source of asthma in children. During a mild attack, children may be found suffering from a shortness of breath or difficulty breathing when partaking in physical activity. In the case of a moderate asthma attack, children may have difficulty breathing when eating or talking. However, in the case of a severe asthma attack, children are likely to have a very hard time breathing when they are simply sleeping or sitting upright.
Preventing Asthma By Eliminating Mold
While mold is never the number one cause of asthma in children there is a significant increase in asthma attacks on children who have been exposed to toxic mold. By eliminating any mold from your home and ensuring that your child’s school is free of mold can be one step in figuring out the cause of your child’s asthma. All parents want their kids to be happy and healthy. By taking the first step and making sure your home is mold free will provide you with a positive solution to your child’s health issues. In fact, simply by taking proactive action to fight mold, you can decrease your child’s asthma attacks by half.
