It primarily affects individuals with weakened immune systems and can lead to severe complications if untreated. Symptoms vary depending on the affected area, including lung infections, skin lesions, and central nervous system involvement. Prevention involves protective measures such as wearing gloves and masks during exposure to dirt or debris, proper wound care, and maintaining hygiene.
