Create WAV file for each record in database

I have table in database in which I'm storing wav files in longblob column. I'm trying to create an folder and store all wav's of given user on the server. What I have so far is query to database and table and so far simple example of storing just one wav. I'm not much familiar with PHP and I'll need a little bit help on this.

$con=mysqli_connect("localhost","root","xxxx","testDB");

if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
    echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}

$sql="SELECT recording FROM users WHERE accountID = '1234'";
$result=mysqli_query($con,$sql);

while ($result = mysqli_fetch_array($row)) {

    $data = $result["recording"];

    //mkdir('/var/spool/sounds/', 0755, true);

    $wavFileName = "/var/spool/sounds/wavfile.wav";
    $fh = fopen($wavFileName, 'w'); 
    fwrite($fh, $data);
    fclose($fh);
}

The snipped above is creating one wav in that directory.

If user has 5 saved wav files, how to create directory with name userID and file1.wav, file2.wav .. etc inside?

Just create the path and filename with concatenation of userid and number of files already created. Then, check if that path exists, otherwise create it.

$directory = "/var/spool/sounds/" . $userID;
$fileExtension = ".wav";
$fileNumber = 1;
while ($result = mysqli_fetch_array($row))
{
    $data = $result["recording"];
    if (!is_dir($directory))
        mkdir($directory, 0755, true);

    $wavFileName = $directory . "/file" . $fileNumber;
    /*
     *  if you need to check if the file already exists,
     *  you can rename the new file "/var/spool/sounds/userId/file1_copy.wav"
     *  or "/var/spool/sounds/userId/file1_copy_copy.wav" if a copy already exists and so on.
     */
    while (file_exists($wavFileName . $fileExtension))
        $wavFileName .= "_copy";
    $fh = fopen($wavFileName . $fileExtension, 'w'); 
    fwrite($fh, $data);
    fclose($fh);
    $fileNumber++;
}

With the following code, will work : 

$account_id = 1234;
mkdir('/var/spool/sounds/'.$account_id, 0755, true);
$sql="SELECT recording FROM users WHERE accountID = ".$account_id ;
$result=mysqli_query($con,$sql);
$i=0;
while ($result = mysqli_fetch_array($row)) {
    $i++;
    $data = $result["recording"];

    $wavFileName = "/var/spool/sounds/".$account_id."/file".$i.".wav";
    $fh = fopen($wavFileName, 'w'); 
    fwrite($fh, $data);
    fclose($fh);
}
