Answer

Congenital muscular torticollis is primarily caused by birth trauma or intrauterine position abnormalities leading to inflammation of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. If a child’s torticollis is not corrected in a timely manner, it may lead to further cervical and even upper thoracic vertebral lateral curvature deformities. It is recommended to consult a doctor at a hospital for a thorough examination, as costs may vary by region.
