Are higher the floors we live, the air gets better ? We are looking for a flat that is 15 floors above. We are planning to move to a better location for my child suffering from Atopic Dermatitis. We want to avoid making her dependent on steroids and try avoiding triggers.

Yes. It isn't true in every case but I know a patient of mine improved with a change to the higher floor (medicines were the same throughout). It's worth trying, especially if he is having severe flares unrelated to food intake.
