8705 48th Ave, College Park, MD 20740-Terrible Landlord

So, this happened in 2024, but I do not care I am just going to say it anyways. I lived in 8705 48th Ave, College Park, MD 20740 from around January to May. So, I lived in the basement of this house, and in the first week of living at the location I found mold. I talked to the landlord about it, and he said he will get some guy to come over and clean it the next day. He sends some guy over to clean it the next day with chlorine and says he would be there early morning but arrives a few hours later, whatever. The handyman sprays chlorine gas where the mold would be and surrounding areas and tells me in about 6 hours it will all be gone. I told the guy I have an air purifier and turn it on. He puts it on the lowest setting, which I didn’t know until I came back. Doesn't even open the window. Well, I walk in 8 hours later and I was only in there for about 10 mins. But, I realized I was heaving immense chest and abdominal pain, so I had to leave the room. I remember having immense pain and it being hard to breathe for a few weeks. I talked to the handyman and he named every other excuse than the actual problem of breathing in the chlorine. He was of no use or help just pure incompetence. I explained the situation to the landlord and just told me to deal with it and ask the handyman. He said his only responsibility is the lease. I went to urgent care at least 3 times and they gave no answer, and I went to the hospital. I had to get 2 ct scans. The fact I had to go to numerous doctors and spent 100s of dollars is j pure bs. When the lease ended, the landlord was late on giving the security deposit back and tried coming up with some terrible excuse. He was late with all of the other tenants as well. I was strict and had to ask numerous time for my money back. I ended up getting an endoscopy a year later and it did show gastritis and that was the same pain and it is highly likely caused by that. But no medication has worked. I still have abdominal pain and chest pain everyday.
