Yes, mold behind walls can make you sick. Mold hidden behind drywall is a common yet often overlooked health hazard. At LifeWorks Wellness Center, we regularly encounter patients who suffer from exposure to mold in hidden places like behind drywall. This type of mold can be particularly insidious because it’s not immediately visible, yet it continuously releases spores and mycotoxins into the environment. These can cause a variety of health issues, ranging from allergic reactions and respiratory problems to more severe systemic issues.
If you suspect mold behind drywall, you should have it investigated by a mold remediation expert so that you can confirm its existence. They can also remediate this issue for you, so you’re not being continually exposed to toxic mold spores.
If you are not feeling well, you may also have mold toxicity built up in your body. Exposure to mold, especially toxic varieties like black mold, can lead to neurological issues due to the toxins released by these molds. These toxins can cause inflammation and disrupt normal brain function, leading to symptoms like memory loss, difficulty concentrating, mood swings, and even severe neurological disorders.
