Allergies and Asthma. Breathing in too much mold or mildew can cause allergies. In severe cases, it can also contribute to the development of asthma. These conditions can cause watery and itchy eyes, sneezing, coughing, nausea, fatigue, headaches and trouble breathing. Asthma or prior allergies before exposure can make these symptoms worse.
Mold spores are inhaled, aggravating the sinus cavity, which leads to sinus inflammation, congestion and headaches, according to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. Sinus inflammation causes blockage in the person's ability to breathe through the nose and the ability to properly drain mucus.
