As we mentioned before, radon is found everywhere, and it can get into buildings and homes, and that is why there is radon in Florida homes. When radon is present in homes, there may be signs or symptoms. These signs or symptoms will be exhibited in you or your loved ones. The possible symptoms will include shortness of breath, a worsening or even a new cough, pain or tightness in the chest, and even trouble swallowing. If you are a smoker, and you have been exposed to high levels of radon, you need to try and quit smoking.
