Patient's question:
When sleeping, face to the left; when holding the baby, head tilted to the right. It can be roughly estimated that the face is of different sizes, but there are no lumps. It was only noticed after about ten days of birth that there had been previous treatment and its effects: always correcting the nap position and feeding posture, caring about what kind of assistance is needed: no precise examination was done, the doctor said to pay attention to the child's posture and wait until they are bigger to consider surgery.Doctor's answer:
It is important to emphasize the importance of posture correction for children with torticollis. During breastfeeding, the child should be positioned on the affected side. When sleeping, adjust the sleeping position so that sunlight or light illuminates the affected side. Toys that make sounds and flash lights, as well as devices like televisions and recorders, should also originate from the affected side. Additionally, use a pillow to support the affected side. When holding the child across the mother's lap, ensure the affected side is facing up to encourage the child to lift their eyes and strengthen the neck muscles through targeted exercises.
