Humidifiers + Respiratory Illnesses
If you suffer with any respiratory diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, influenza, pneumonia, and tuberculosis, humidifiers help by softening the mucus around your respiratory organs helping you to cough up phlegm more easily.
This helps to clear passageways allowing for more easier and comfortable breathing.
If you or your child has asthma or allergies, talk to your doctor before using a humidifier as increased humidity can either benefit or make symptoms worse depending on how humid your environment already is. Use a humidity meter in your home to find out what your current level is.
