Anyone familiar with mold/bacteria under houses?...

I work at a place that installs security for homes and businesses. Had to crawl under a old building today to pull wire and ever since I got out from under it, my throat has felt like theres something in it. Under the house was wet mud, some kind of white mold i think, and alot of spider webs. Some dirt/debris/idk wtf was falling from the bottom of the floor too while I was pulling it. I think i either swallowed a web or inhaled some of that mold or something else that idk of that got inside my throat. Am I going to die?

I cleaned my uncle's boat that had the cover blown off in a storm last winter..and it collected leaves and water all winter. So..it was covered in mold and mildew and rotten leaves, etc. The day after cleaning it..i felt like poo. And it has taken me roughly 6 days to feel better. Throat hurt, head pressure, sinuses all clogged, etc. I read somewhere and was told by my gf's mother (whos a dr.) that the mold and mildew probably irritated my sinuses and reduced the effectiveness of my nose's natural defense system and my overall immune system..aka leaving my body open to the cold i now have. You wont die, and its kinda a coincidence that you needed this information. Now of course...if your systems change and get worse after a week or so..id def seek medical attention. hope this helps.
