I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. The fungal infection is caused by a group of molds called mucormycetes. These molds live throughout the environment. Mucormycosis mainly affects people who have health problems or take medicines that lower the body's ability to fight germs and sickness. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
