Torticollis is a problem involving the muscles of the neck
that causes the head to tilt down. Sometimes it's called “wryneck.” If your
baby has the condition at birth, it's called congenital muscular torticollis.
Symptoms
Symptoms of wry neck can
begin slowly. They may also worsen over time. The most common symptoms include:
- an inability to move your head
normally
- neck pain or stiffness
- a headache
- having one shoulder higher than the
other
- swollen neck muscles
- a tilting of your chin to one side
Causes
·
Wry neck can be
inherited.
·
It can also
develop in the womb. This may happen if your baby’s head is in the wrong
position. It can also be due to damage to the muscles or blood supply to the
neck.
·
Anyone can develop
wry neck after a muscle or nervous system injury.
·
However, most of
the time, the cause of wry neck is unknown. This is referred to as idiopathic
torticollis.
