@bloomnesthealth: Torticollis, often called “twisted neck,” is a common condition in infants where a baby’s head tilts to one side while the chin points toward the opposite shoulder. This usually happens due to tightness in one of the neck muscles and may be noticed within the first few weeks of life. Early diagnosis is extremely important because timely treatment can significantly improve outcomes. Parents are often advised to perform gentle stretching exercises, encourage tummy time, and position toys or caregivers on the baby’s less preferred side to promote balanced neck movement. In some cases, a pediatric physiotherapist may recommend a personalized exercise program. If left untreated, torticollis can contribute to head flattening (plagiocephaly) or delayed motor development. Regular follow-ups with a pediatrician help monitor progress and ensure healthy growth. Most babies recover very well with consistent therapy and proper care, allowing them to achieve normal neck movement and developmental milestones without long-term complications. #Torticollis #BabyCare #InfantHealth #NewParents #PediatricCare
