What causes the tightness or shortening of the neck muscle? Some times a traumatic birth injury causes stretching and scaring of the neck muscle. Congenital infant torticollis can also be caused by babyâs position in the womb. Torticollis is more common in situations where there is lack of space in the womb. For example with multiple births or when there is little amniotic fluid.
Torticollis, also known as wryneck, is a condition in which your baby's head is tilted. The chin points to one shoulder, while the head tilts toward the opposite shoulder. Treatment is necessary to prevent your baby's face and skull from growing unevenly and to prevent limited motion of the head and neck.
