Wheezing problem

Hi doctor, My son has a wheezing problem and trouble sleeping due to a nose blocking issue, so we have planned an air purifier or humidifier , we are not clear about what he really needs for now. So please suggest which helps most for his issue whether humidifier or air purifier. Thank you

Humidifier can help in blocked nose. But wheezing is due to amall airway obstruction which requires treatment with oral medicines or with inhalational medicine which are given with the help of a nebulizer.
