Guest guest Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Hi! My name is Margarita. My son is 8 months old.The right side of his head is a little bit flat and his left forehead is a little bit flat as well.The ears are a little bit off.His asimetry is 4mm. The doctor recommended a helmet, because of the flattening. I am not sure that he really needs it. Most people don't even notice it if I don't tell them. Anyway we got the helmet- Starband - 5 days ago. Now I constantly worry that this helmet is harming him instead of helping him. The helmet is constantly rotating. It doesn't exactly cover his eyes , but it tips forward a lot and goes very close to the eyes. It is also very tight on the left cheek and almost touching the left eye. It's loose on the right cheek and when my son moves his head it covers his right ear. He also has torticollis and has to do lots of excersizes involving turning his head to the left , but every time he turns to the left the helmet almost covers his eye. I feel like the torticollis is getting worse because of the helmet. Is this possible or I am getting paranoid. I'll be happy to hear your oppinion. Best Regards, Margarita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
