The best ** period for torticollis.

6 months. Because you sleep on the same side all the time, your head and face will be asymmetrical. Because the skull of infants and young children is still growing, the asymmetry before 6 months of age still has a chance to recover, and after 6 months, it is relatively fixed, and it is very difficult to correct.

The baby is in a period of vigorous growth and development, and various organs are constantly growing and changing, and if this deviation lasts for more than 3 or 4 weeks, it can lead to an imbalance in facial development. Specifically, the face and skull on the deviated side are smaller than those on the opposite side, and the eyes on both sides are not on the same level, that is, the deviated side is low, the contralateral side is high, and the nose and mouth are deviated to varying degrees. And as children get older, this facial asymmetry will become more and more serious, and eventually irreversible.

Up to 2 years old. Babies over 1 year old should undergo surgery** to cut fibrotic muscles. If torticollis can be corrected before the age of 2 years, there will be no obvious facial deviation deformity, and facial facial deviation can be gradually corrected with development.

Older torticollis babies have facial deviations that are difficult to correct even after surgery.
