A rapidly invasive Aspergillus infection in the lungs often causes cough, fever, chest pain, and difficulty breathing. [citation needed] Poorly controlled aspergillosis can disseminate through the blood to cause widespread organ damage. [2] Symptoms include fever, chills, shock, delirium, seizures, and blood clots.
Aspergillus acidohumus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Cervini section. [1] The species was first described in 2016. [1]
Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis is a long-term fungal infection caused by members of the genus Aspergillus—most commonly Aspergillus fumigatus. [8] The term describes several disease presentations with considerable overlap, ranging from an aspergilloma [12] —a clump of Aspergillus mold in the lungs—through to a subacute, invasive form known as chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis ...
In addition to organ damage after inhalation of OTA, cases of allergy development have also been found. A disease named allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, has been found to be caused due to the antigenic effects of Aspergillus ochraceus. [32] Aspergillus ochraceus was found to be associated with the development of asthma in children too. [8]
Symptoms can range from mild to extreme—often described as extreme flu-like symptoms. Many symptoms may be associated with fungemia, including pain, acute confusion, chronic fatigue, and infections. Skin infections can include persistent or non-healing wounds and lesions, sweating, itching, and unusual discharge or drainage. [citation needed]

Adverse respiratory health effects are associated with occupancy in buildings with moisture and mold damage. [9] Infants in homes with mold have a much greater risk of developing asthma and allergic rhinitis. [10] [11] Infants may develop respiratory symptoms due to exposure to a specific type of fungal mold, called Penicillium. Signs that an ...
