The answer to your question is predicated on moving target, since some organisms may be a mould at some parts of their life cycle and not a mould at others. So, the question could also legitimately be restated: What kind of diseases could be caused by exposure to fungi? However, regarding most of the more common household moulds, there are actually very few diseases associated with the moulds. The most typical response for the average member of the general public is NO response. The next most typical response is an allergic response seen in those people who are already predisposed to Allergies specific to that one particular organism or epitope. There is no such thing as toxic mould, and so any discussions regarding the same would be superfluous. If you are interested in reading about the famous “toxic black mould” Stachybotrys atra, try here: http://www.forensic-applications.com/moulds/sok.html Some mould organisms are opportunistic pathogens and can invade the lungs of deathly sick people and facilitate their death. However, this very rarely happens in otherwise healthy people. Different mould may pose different risks in different exposure scenarios. By refining your question, and being more specific, you may find better answers.

Cancer can sometimes be found in moles, especially moles that are risen out of the skin. It is rare, however very possible. Most times it usually happens to people who already have it occurring in other family members (like a hereditary thing). Don't worry if you have moles because the chances ae there is nothing wrong with them. However, if you have a risen mole and it happens to fall of and bleed, see a doctor immediately to make sure that there are no red flag to be concerned about.
