Recently, Fuzhou, Fujian. A post-00 girl is a room escape enthusiast. After going to the room 2 to 3 times a week for 2 consecutive months, she developed symptoms of chest tightness, pain and dry cough. She was diagnosed with pulmonary cryptococcosis by the hospital.

The doctor said that Cryptococcus is easy to attack people with low immunity. There may be a lot of Cryptococcus in the dark, damp space, which is the reason for her infection.

The doctor also said that cryptococcus generally causes respiratory tract infection after inhalation of the respiratory tract. The initial infection focus is mostly the lungs, and the central nervous system is most easily invaded, causing cryptococcal meningitis. Common symptoms consist of fever, progressive headache, nausea, vomiting, and psychiatric and neurological symptoms.

After clarifying the cause, Xiaoyou took standard anti-cryptococcal therapy and has now returned to normal.
