My daughter who is 5 has been diagnosed with torticollis and the doctor recommended activities such as swim, dance, gymnastics and ice hockey to assist in helping the condition. Does this make sense to anyone?? Any help would be appreciated

I am 15 years old and have had neck pain for many years. I found a lump on my neck and while reasearching this found out about this disease. Different doctors have told me i have an limited movement of my neck, one shoulder is elevated, a tilted head, a lump, and neck pain. Considering I have seen many doctors and a physical therapist, I don't know why this hasn't been diagosed. Could having an ambilical cord around my neck at birth be a cause?

Hi there,
My uncle is a doctor in pakistan. He has been diagnosed torticollas. we are having all possible treatment in here including that most famous injection but he feels better only two day and third day he is in worse condition. I want to know if there is any other possible treatment that can be done. ?
Please advice.

Try remedial massage therapy or Myotherapy. Alternatives are using ice packs when the muscle is in a spasm and using heat to address muscle ischemia, try gentle isometric stretching exercises to the affected SCM as well.

Hi. My daughter was born with spastic torticollas, due to a neurological condition. It has grown worse in recent years and now we are being told she needs botox injections. We simply cannot afford these injections, as insurance doesn't cover the entire cost. She has also had a kidney transplant and the use of herbal medicines may interfere with her antirejection medications. I am at my wits end with this.....I want to help with the pain of the torticollas, but don't want to compromise my daughter's health either. Not certain what to do???? Would acupuncture be a good alternative? Any other suggestions? Thank you.
