When I was young and worked in renovations, many times I would notice black mold in my nose?
Could this be causing me health issues now? I now believe it was from the air around moldy walls and removing drywall and old floors. i always worked as the tool gopher or helped remove stuff for my foster parents on the houses they had.
At the time I would blow my nose and notice it but I didn't tell anyone.What can black mold when inhaled do to you?

don't fret, it would have caused immediate problems at the time of exposure.
Besides having iar breathing in & out would have destroyed any mold.

that does not necessarily mean it was black mold. It could also have been plain old dirt.
I use to work at a tree nursery outdoors all summer and on windy days when dust blew around, blowing my nose yielded some pretty heavy concentrations black snot.
Construction workers and farmers out in the dust and dirt every day always have black snot. Its normal when you work in dirty dusty areas.
Your nose hairs catch that, its their job, then the mucus your sinus develops washes the dirt out when you blow your nose.
If you had inhaled black mold, I think you would have been ill by now.
Here is a link of frightening symptoms of mold inhalation.
Only you know what you feel like now so you need to decide if you have any of these issues.
