<s>[INST] Can asthma be cured and is it fatal? [/INST] 
Asthma is a chronic disease that cannot be cured. However, with daily care it can be controlled. Deaths from asthma are rare and usually preventable.They are usually caused by a lack of medical care and education and improper use of medicines.

Asthma ordinarily causes no permanent lung damage. When asthma is controlled, the condition of your lungs return to normal. So, it is important that you take care of yourself and see your doctor on a regular basis so an asthma control plan can be developed for you and followed by you. Once you have a plan, you will only need to spend a few minutes each day to monitor and control your disease. Source: UNC School of Medicine.
