Hello, folks. My kid had some problems with his neck. After some testing, he was diagnosed with juvenile torticollis. I have never heard about this condition before, so I will appreciate if you could tell me something more about dealing with it. I will appreciate all your replies. Bye and thanks!
Hi, there. Torticollis is not so rare condition. It is manifested with twisted neck. Head is usually turned in one direction. When we talk about the treatment, there are several options. The basic thing is to stretch the shortened muscle. When the children are small, there is an option of passive stretching and positioning. I hope this will help. Discuss the details with your kid’s doctor. Good luck with all! Bye!

Hello, everyone. My friend’s kid was diagnosed with juvenile torticollis. He went for this procedure. If the torticollis is acquired, then finding the underlying cause is a must. If your kid is feeling pain, then apply traction. Heat and massaging can also do well. However, I recommend you to consult someone how to do this. I hope this will help you. Good luck! Bye!
