Question

My child is seven months old, and I recently noticed that they always tilt their head to the left. Is this behavior normal? I’ve overlooked this issue before and hope a doctor can help answer.

Answer

At seven months old, it may be abnormal if a child consistently tilts their head to the left, especially if accompanied by symptoms of torticollis. It is recommended not to let the child always sleep on the same side and to appropriately supplement with calcium. First, adjust the sleep position and observe for a period of time to see if there is any improvement. If the symptoms persist, it is advisable to seek further medical examination.
