Torticollis

  • Poor posture during sleep;

  • Muscle tension;

  • Sudden movement of the head;

  • Inadequate positioning.

It is a problem that requires medical verification, to rule out problems such as neck and spine injury. If there is no well-defined cause, the doctor will be able to investigate the possibility of thyroid problems and even a neck tumor.
