No: It will help a lot but not cure it.Mit will also reduce your chances of developing lung, oral, thrower, esophageal , gastric and bladder cancers. Will reduce your risk of heart attack, and of ultimately developing emphysema. Nothing good comes from smoking.

Cure it? No. Help : Control it? Absolutely. You'll be amazed how much better you'll feel after a month or two of not breathing smoke and fire. The only cure for asthma is allergen immunotherapy that unfortunately works for some but not all people with asthma.

Not really: Consider asthma a lifelong condition like a missing leg, only for asthma it is not as obvious and can be controlled by avoiding triggers. It is not like appendicitis where you can take it out & you are cured. Smoking is a well known trigger to lung irritation that will always aggravate asthma to some degree. Stopping may actually let you go for years between events, or just reduce their intensity.
