Guest guest Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 My son will be 7 months old tomorrow and has been in his starband for three weeks now. Before deciding on the starband we had a consultation at CT but due to the distance we would have to travel to their facility, we ended up going with our local orthitist. My son has brachycephaly with a little bit of plagio also. My concern is that he has buldging right over both ears. CT said that this was fairly common in babies with brachy, but the local orthotist we are going to said he has never seen it. So...when my son first got his helmet, the orthostist made some marks on the band so that adjustments could be made. It was a little too low around his eyes and he made the space around the ear bigger. When he shaved off the part around the ear, he just happened to leave the part exposed where my son has the bulging. I mentioned it to him and he said we would " watch " it. I have noticed it getting worse! I'm not sure what I should do. Has anyone ever dealt with this, or did/does your child have the same type of bulging? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
