Guest guest Posted March 22, 2002 Report Share Posted March 22, 2002 Hi, My name is Kim and I just wanted to introduce myself. My son was diagnosed with torticollis when he was 2.5 months old. We were told it was very mild and after three sessions with a PT the orthopedist said was fine and sent us on our way. I was very worried about the flat spot on the back of 's head but was told by the peditrician and orthopedist that it will go away on its own. Well, is 9 months now the plagiocephaly did not go away and the torticollis is pretty severe. After a lot of pushing from me, we are going to PT 3x a week now and has to wear a neck splint to help with the head tilt. Monday he is being fitted for a helmet. I'm not sure what to expect and I'm a little nervous about it. I'm glad I found this group and I'm sure I will have a lot of questions once starts wearing the helmet.
