What is the condition of a 2-month-old baby with torticollis?

Patient's question:

The baby's head often tilts to one side, not looking at the other side, with one cheek being fuller.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for torticollis, you can visit the Traditional Chinese Medicine department of the hospital for treatment, such as massage and acupuncture, which has a good effect. Local drug closure can be performed.
This has a very significant effect on promoting the absorption of local swelling. Prednisolone or hyaluronidase is often selected, along with a moderate amount of lidocaine for local closure. The occurrence of pediatric orthopedic deformities severely affects the patient's life. In addition to active treatment, patients need to pay more attention to daily care. It is important to protect the affected area and maintain a balanced diet to avoid or reduce the chance of onset.
