The Incident Happened In China
It was reported that the incident happened in China where the man only known by his surname, Peng was diagnosed with a severe fungal infection in his lungs.

He Complained Of Chest Pain
Apparently, the man had visited the doctor with a severe congestion of the chest, and he complained of a cough and chest pain. Physicians thought that he was suffering from pneumonia, but since his condition was getting worse, the doctors reinterviewed the man.

When The Doctors Checked On His Lifestyle, They Discovered
Since the man's condition had not improved and it had become worse over the period, it was found out that the man had the weird habit of smelling his own socks that he wore every day!

The Man Had Developed An Infection From A Fungus
The man had developed an infection from a fungus that he had apparently developed in his footwear, and it had spread to his lungs when he inhaled the spores. Since the man's immune system was weak, as he did not get enough rest, his condition only got worse.
