Humidifiers, Asthma and Allergies
Humidifiers are devices that release water vapour or steam to increase moisture levels in the air (humidity). If you or your child has asthma or allergies, talk to your doctor before using a humidifier.
Increased humidity may ease breathing in children and adults who have asthma or allergies, especially during a respiratory infection such as a cold. But mist from a dirty humidifier or increased growth of allergens caused by high humidity can trigger or worsen asthma and allergy symptoms.
