Periorbital fungal infection Signs and symptoms of<unk>  depend on the location in the body of the infection. Infection usually begins in the mouth or nose and enters the central nervous system via the eyes. If the fungal infection begins in the nose or sinus and extends to brain, symptoms and signs may include one-sided eye pain or headache, and may be accompanied by pain in the face, numbness, fever, loss of smell, a blocked nose or runny nose. The person may appear to have sinusitis. The face may look swollen on one side, with rapidly progressing "black lesions" across the nose or upper inside of mouth. One eye may look swollen and bulging, and vision may be blurred. Fever, cough, chest pain, and difficulty breathing, or coughing up blood, can occur when the lungs are involved. A stomach ache, nausea, vomiting and bleeding can occur when the gastrointestinal tract is involved. Affected skin may appear as a dusky reddish tender patch with a darkening centre due to tissue death. There may be an ulcer and it can be very painful. Invasion into the blood vessels can result in thrombosis and subsequent death of surrounding tissue due to a loss of blood supply. Widespread (disseminated)<unk>  typically occurs in people who are already sick from other medical conditions, so it can be difficult to know which symptoms are related to<unk> . People with disseminated infection in the brain can develop mental status changes or coma.
