Hi,

Black mold is known to cause allergic problem and the basic cause of your sisters health issue seems to be exposure to the mold. She needs antiallergic treatment in form of nasal steroids, anti allergic pills, Montelukast along with desensitization treatment under expert allergy specialist care. Getting rid of mold from her residence or changing residence is also essential.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
