Does a humidifier do anything for asama?
Answers: Under normal conditions, and if the humidity levels are normal, a humidifier is superfluous. On the other hand, in the presence of high humidity (over 45%), and especially if a child have chronic asthma and/or respiratory allergies, the humidity needs to be decreased by using a dehumidifier. Low humidity is not good any as it dries up our respiratory tract, including the nose. In the case of low humidity, a central humidifier may abet to bring up the humidity and maintain it at normal levels.
Although humidifiers may give support to a child with a cold, they should not routinely be used in asthmatic children, unless discussed with your doctor.
An incorrectly maintained or unclean humidifier may be actually spreading germs and harm a child
It would give me an asthma attack! My lungs hate too much humidity.
