Hello,

Thank you for asking your query at DoctorSpring.

Sorry for the delay in reply as was waiting for our Infectious Disease Specialists opinion regarding in this consult.

Molds are fungi (including black mold) and they are universally found in the environment. Humans will be exposed to it many times in their life cycle and thankfully our immunity will take care of it. I assume your Dad has no major medical illness (like Post chemotherapy for cancer / Sever Diabetes / HIV-AIDS). In that case there is NO reason to worry. It is unlikely that he was infected / accumulated any toxins.

If the symptoms persists he might require an antibiotic. If by any chance the response is poor to medications and/or there are new usual symptoms then a black mold exposure can be considered. (although the probability is very less)

Hope this helps
Please feel free to ask followups
Thank you
