Patient's question:
I recently noticed that my baby's head has been leaning to one side while crawling. I searched online and found that it's due to infant torticollis, which can be corrected through self-massage at home. I'd like to ask how long it takes for the baby's torticollis to recover with massage therapy?Doctor's answer:
Many muscular neck deviations require surgical treatment, and massage therapy is not particularly effective. Currently, massage is effective and can be continuous because the infant still needs a long time for surgery. Currently, if massage can be effective, the pain of surgery can be avoided. Massage does not cause pain, mainly through friction and horizontal sliding. Do not massage yourself because you cannot control the intensity and frequency of the massage.
