yes
Yes, Chronic Daily Headaches can be cured. The first thing to do is find a neurologist who specializes in headaches. That neurologist will have you keep a headache calendar as well as giving you a trigger sheet to see if there is a certain cause for the headaches and then start on various medications until the correct combinations are found. Sometimes if medications do not work, then you can try Botox of electronic devices like Cefaly and Vagal Nerve Stimilator.

There are many options to treat, ranging from daily medications, nerve blocks, BOTOX, and newer biological monthly injections. Cognitive behavioral treatments can also be useful.
