Cladosporium is a common fungus that can be found indoors. It appears in clusters of green, yellow or black spots that can spread rapidly. Cladosporium herbarum moulds are responsible for causing allergic symptoms among people. If your household consists of this fungus, you might risk developing an allergy.

The Cladosporium mould allergy symptoms might be mild or severe. The reaction to this mould can happen immediately when you are exposed to it, or the symptoms might appear after some time, which can include: 
Sneezing and runny nose 
Coughing 
Nasal congestion 
Dry and flaky skin 
Itching in the eyes, throat and nose 
Eye infections 
Skin infections 
Postnasal drip 
Wheezing

While some people don't show these Cladosporium mould allergy symptoms, most people experience them.

Prolonged exposure to the Cladosporium mould could lead to complications like fungal sinusitis. After getting affected by this disease, the fungus's allergen might start growing inside your sinus cavity, which can lead to postnasal drip, sinus headaches and nasal congestion.

Moreover, Cladosporium allergy can also worsen asthma attacks. You might suffer from shortness of breath, tightness in your chest and breathing problems. Hence, it is essential to visit a physician when you experience Cladosporium mould allergy symptoms.

The most recommended analysis of this allergy is the Cladosporium Herbarum Allergy Test. Doctors conduct this test to analyse the symptoms you are suffering from. It enables them to determine if you have developed an allergy and if the allergens are hampering your well-being.

The Cladosporium Herbarum Allergy Test involves the examination of the IgE antibodies in the blood. When your body is exposed to this fungus, the immune system tries to identify it. The immune system usually detects the mould spores as a “foreign element” and reacts to cause various symptoms.  As a result, your immune system produces IgE antibodies. If the presence of these antibodies is detected, it may indicate that you are allergic to Cladosporium Herbarum moulds.

The IgE antibody levels might not always help the doctors understand the severity of the symptoms. Hence, they might ask you for information about your past clinical history. You also have to notify the doctor about the current issues you are experiencing.

Apollo 24|7 offers a comprehensive Cladosporium Herbarum Allergy Test with standard testing facilities and services for a seamless experience.
