Not sure if this should go here, but what the heck.
So I have a mold problem in my room. It wasn't there when I first moved in and due to how my bed and curtains were set up, I didn't see it and therefore didn't realize it was there until I
smelled it.
I spent the majority of my Sunday cleaning and coughing. Btw, I'm ill at the moment! Coincedence?
Originally, I thought it might have been water damage or due to the condensation built by my window. However, upon speaking to a local man about it, he said that it might be coming from the ceiling.
I have never dealt with mold, I don't know much about it. I spoke to my roommates and they're concerned it will spread to their rooms. They recommended that I get soda crystals and scrub, scrub, scrub. However, this led to me just scraping off the paint, my room is painted white, only to see that the mold is underneath the paint and in the wall.
I informed my roommates about it and it has been suggested that I prepare to relocate for the sake of my health.
Just to describe the problem, there is a distinct trail of mold along the bend of my wall from the ceiling to the floor. The worst of it was near the floor but it was spreading along the edges of the wall.
And since I cleaned it on Sunday, it's coming back.
Is the room savagable or should I relocate?
