Are Intermittent Ear And Throat Infections Due To Molds?
Hello, I have just moved to the US from the UK and I have been ill on and off with various ear infections, throat infections, colds and now a chesty wheezing cough. I think I just located some mould in the apartment. Could this be a cause of my illnesses because generally I am healthy. This is the first time I have been ill in about 3 or 4 years with cold-flu like symptoms

Hi it could be very likely that you have developed allergy to the mould and hence the symptoms. Good to consult your treating physician.
