Can Black Mold In The Apartment Cause Red Spots And Pain In Throat?

Hi. Last night I woke up from a sleep not breathing and choking. I could feel breath entering my mouth but I couldnt inhale it into my lungs. It lasted about 15 - 30 seconds. I managed to get a few drops of water into my mouth and was able to cough through it and breath again. My throat is all red and has spots on it and my chest still hurts. I recently found black mold in my apartment and was wondering if that could cause it or if it is something else.

Yes moulds can cause throat infection. It would be better if you can send me the picture of your throat and tell me what medicines have you been taking so far so that I can suggest you better
