Navigating the early months with a newborn brings so much joy, but it's also a time to be aware of their development. This image illustrates different degrees of Torticollis in infants – a condition where a baby's neck muscles tighten on one side, causing their head to tilt in one direction and their chin to point in the opposite direction.

As you can see, the presentation can vary. In mild torticollis, the tilt might be subtle. In moderate cases, the head tilt and limited range of motion become more noticeable. And in severe torticollis, the tilt is quite pronounced. Looking at the back views can also highlight the asymmetry in head and neck positioning. The profile views further emphasize the restricted movement.

It's important for parents to be aware of these signs. If you notice your baby consistently favoring one side, having difficulty turning their head, or if you observe a head tilt, it's recommended to consult with your pediatrician. Early intervention, often involving physical therapy and gentle stretching exercises, can be very effective in resolving torticollis and ensuring healthy development. Let's spread awareness to help more babies get the support they need!
