Fungal Infections

Fungal infections can be found all over the natural world. Fungal infections in humans occur when an invasive fungus takes over an area of the body and overpowers the immune system. Fungi can exist in the air, soil, water, and plants, among other places. Some fungus can also be found naturally in the human body. There are beneficial and toxic fungus, just like there are beneficial and hazardous bacteria. When hazardous fungi enter the body, they might be difficult to eradicate since they can persist in the environment and re-infect the individual who is trying to recover.
