Causes of Fungal Infection

Fungal infections can be primary in those who are relatively healthy and can be opportunistic such as in a person with a weak immune system. People living in damp places like coastal regions where a higher concentration of mold is present are at more risk. Some other susceptible conditions are:

  • Chronic illnesses like Diabetes, Cancer, AIDS, etc.
