See a child care department, if necessary, see a corrective surgery. Torticollis is due to contracture of one sternocleidomastoid muscle, resulting in head to one side of the disease. Diagnosis is generally very simple. Treatment includes observation, manual massage, active family treatment plan, brace orthosis and surgical treatment. It is recommended to immediately begin gentle massage on the mass and stretch the contracture sternocleidomastoid muscle, each stretch for 2 to 3 seconds, each time 10 to 20 times, 4 to 6 times a day. The above massage therapy should be done by parents at home. Children over 6 years old who fail or are delayed by conservative treatment need surgery to correct the appearance deformity and improve the extension and rotation function of the neck. For children over 12 years old, facial asymmetry is difficult to recover even after surgery.
