Content: – Your baby starts getting flat areas on one or both sides from lying in one position all the time- this is called ‘positional plagiocephaly’. Please read our blog post on how to prevent plagiocephaly developing in infants if you are worried about flat head syndrome as a result of torticollis. We also explain the relationship between plagiocephaly and torticollis. 3. Klippel-Feil Syndrome
This condition is present from birth. If your baby keeps tilting their head to one side, they may have Klippel-Feil Syndrome which is the result of a fusion of two or more cervical (neck) vertebrae. Children with Klippel-Feil syndrome may have a short, broad neck, low hairline and very restricted neck movement. If you’re not sure about your newborn’s head, please read our blog post called 5 things about your newborn’s head that are completely normal. Klippel-Feil Syndrome is a rare disorder, estimated to affect 1 in 40,000 newborns worldwide. The disorder appears to occur slightly more often in females than in males.
