Unlikely, but: Outgrowing asthma usually refers to infants or toddlers who have asthma symptoms triggered by colds only. If the child has eczema, food allergies, >4% eos on CBC or, a parent with asthma then lower chances that they will outgrow asthma. Adults with asthma can "control" their asthma by avoiding asthma triggers and medications, but are unlikely to have spontaneous resolution.
