Well they are a DR... I would probably go with the one with a *MD versus someone else's opinion.

We have a cool mist humidifier and it works for everyone in our household.

I would use what you have, I guess.

DD's pedi told me to use cool mist. He said something about the warm mist making it easier for bacteria to breed/spread....

PhD isn't a medical doctor, MD is lol

Anyway OP, I'm sure either one would help. I think it depends on the doctor. Our pedi recommended cool mist

It happens  

I don't know the mechanics. I really didn't notice much difference between the two, they both seem to work. The pedi said that when you use the warm mist it is more likely to grow bacteria in the base and then spread it all around the room
