The traditional question:

what came first, the hen or the egg?

could be asked in relation to plagiocephaly and Congenital Muscular Torticollis (CMT).

 

Check:

  • If your baby's head always rolls to the same side.

  • If he or she has difficulty turning to right or left.

This could be CMT

 

If you detect CMT in your child and the head appears somewhat misshapen, the most likely is that:

  • the cause is Torticollis

  • plagiocephaly is the consequence

Should you detect CMT and plagiocephaly,

  • Treat them jointly

  • As soon as possible

  • And by experts

Warning:

if the torticollis is not treated adequately, the result may be spinal deformity (scoliosis). Parental involvement is vital.
