Some babies may experience certain conditions during their growth and development, such as tilting their heads to the right. And when sleeping, the baby also tilts their head to the right, and it is rare to see their face facing up. In this situation, the baby's parents will be very worried. So, which side should the baby sleep with their head tilted to the right?
Babies always tilt their heads to the right. As parents, it is important to carefully observe whether the baby's head is physiologically tilted to the right or pathologically tilted to the right. To check if the baby has any discomfort symptoms or if there are any other abnormal conditions while turning their head to the right.
The normal physiological right head is just a habitual movement of the baby during sleep, so parents don't need to worry too much about this situation. And for pathological right-sided head, this symptom must be taken seriously, because if the baby tilts their head to the right, it may be accompanied by congenital oblique diameter symptoms. So if it is found that the baby cannot face up, or if there are abnormalities such as blushing, wheezing, or crying when facing up, then it should be considered as a symptom of torticollis. For this condition, it is necessary to take the baby for detailed medical examination in a timely manner.
For the physiological habit of tilting the head to the right, corrective measures can be taken to make the baby's face face face up. It is also possible to elevate the baby's pillow slightly on the side where they prefer to tilt their head to the right, which can change their habit of always tilting their head to the right. In short, if such a situation occurs during the process of parenting, parents must first investigate the cause before taking appropriate measures to take care of and care for the baby.
