Q

What is torticollis?

A

Torticollis or “wry neck” can be congenital (and take up to 8 weeks to benoticeable) or acquired (e.g. from trauma or infection). In most cases, infant torticollis is caused by a sternocleidomastoid tumour and is congenital, muscular torticollis. This would mean that the baby’s range of motion in their neck is limited and they will struggle to turn their head in one direction. This may manifest subtly, such as them only managing to feed successfully from one breast. On examination, you may feel a mobile, non-tender nodule in the body of the sternocleidomastoid muscle. This is rarely firm or tender. The child may tilt their head in one direction with their chin tilted to the other side. The important detail is that this is asymmetrical not just ‘forwards’
