My daughter's friend was cured of asthma when she was 12. Can my child be cured too?
Presently, asthma does not have a cure. However, with good asthma management and education, one can lead a normal and active life. In some children, asthma symptoms that start in childhood can disappear later in life. Sometimes, however, a child's asthma goes away temporarily, only to return a few years later.
