Deep lung fungal infections are often caused by the inhalation of dust from various fungal spores, and their incidence has increased significantly due to the frequent application of broad-spectrum antibiotics, anti-metabolic cytotoxic drugs, immunosuppressants, and hormones. Actinomycetes and Candida exist in normal people's mouth and upper respiratory tract, such as poor oral hygiene, low body resistance, can invade the lungs and cause infections.
