What are the treatment methods for newborn torticollis? A baby’s head habitually leans to one side, often discovered at around 3 months old, and may be congenital. Health exercises and neck massage can be performed in the hospital, followed by slight improvement. Newborns should sleep on their backs, not on their sides. Sleeping on the side is not conducive to a baby’s growth and development. If the baby is held in one direction, it may cause the head to lean to the other side. If this phenomenon occurs when holding the baby on both sides, it is necessary to consider whether the baby has vision problems, especially when fixating on an object, which is particularly evident. Some cases of torticollis are caused by habits (maintenance/sleep), some by vision issues, and some related to developmental problems in the nervous system. These issues need to be gradually checked and resolved.
