Analysis:

This condition is considered to be torticollis, but if this condition occurs since childhood, the possibility of congenital torticollis cannot be ruled out, and it may not be a problem of behavioral habits.

Guidance: At present, it is believed that it is likely to be congenital torticollis, and neck deviation when I was a child is not necessarily a behavioral habit, but is caused by spasm of the sternocleidomastoid muscle on one side, and it is recommended to go to the orthopedic department for sternocleidomastoid muscle tomy.

Spastic torticollis generalis, a type of dystonic disorder, is confined to the neck muscles. Due to intermittent or continuous involuntary contraction of the neck muscles, the head and neck are twisted, crooked, and the posture is abnormal. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT examinations of the head and neck are usually required to rule out other diseases.

Electromyography (EMG) can help identify spasmodic muscles.

If the neck is crooked, first of all, it is necessary to clarify what caused it, and then carry out a positive **. If the crooked neck is caused by atlantoaxial subluxation, it is necessary to actively improve the MRI examination of the cervical spine and the CT examination of the upper cervical spine to determine the specific degree of subluxation, and then actively carry out continuous traction of the jaw-occipital girdle. For adolescents and children, if there is a concomitant pharyngitis and upper respiratory tract infection, it should be done aggressively**.

These inflammatory diseases can cause the ligaments around the atlantoaxial joint to relax, resulting in atlantoaxial subluxation and neck tilt. If it is caused by incorrect posture, it is necessary to actively correct the neck posture, change the posture regularly, avoid a long-term posture, you can properly massage, massage, can be fixed with a neck brace, and if necessary, traction**. Usually do proper physical exercise:

Playing badminton and swimming can be effectively corrected.
