Which of the following is a common allergic response to mold exposure?

  1. Coughing and wheezing

  2. Sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, skin rash

  3. Headaches and migraines

  4. Fatigue and depression

The correct answer is: Sneezing, runny nose, red eyes, skin rash

A common allergic response to mold exposure primarily involves respiratory and skin symptoms. Sneezing, a runny nose, red eyes, and skin rash are characteristic signs of an allergic reaction. These symptoms occur because mold spores can trigger the immune system in sensitive individuals, leading to inflammation and irritation in the nasal passages, eyes, and skin. While coughing and wheezing (the first option) can also occur as a response to mold exposure, they tend to relate more to asthma and respiratory irritation rather than a direct allergic response. Headaches and migraines (the third option) may arise from various triggers, but they are not a typical allergic reaction to mold. Fatigue and depression (the fourth option) are more associated with chronic exposure to environmental stressors but do not specifically indicate an allergic response. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for recognizing mold exposure symptoms and addressing them appropriately.
