Humans get the infection by inhaling the fungal spores floating around in the air and in dust. If your skin is infected, the area can look blistered, red, or swollen. It might turn black or feel warm or painful. The infection can also spread to other parts of your body through your blood. This is called disseminated mucormycosis.
