Special attention should be paid to the baby's growth and development period. As parents, we must observe our babies' abnormal reactions. If torticollis is found, we should go to the hospital for examination. After all, torticollis is relatively difficult to treat. The best treatment is a torticollis corrector. However, during the treatment period, you should still receive other treatments, such as physical therapy and hot compresses on the neck, so that the effect will be better. Congenital torticollis in children is mainly caused by compression and damage to the sternocleidomastoid muscle in the neck, which leads to adhesion and atrophy of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and crooked neck. In the early stages, you can use hot compresses on the neck, local massage, and physical therapy to change the child’s sleeping position and correct the condition.Suggestions: If the conservative correction effect is not ideal, congenital torticollis can be corrected by sternocleidomastoid muscle resection surgery. The method of wearing the torticollis corrector after the operation is: appropriately raise the neck on the torticollis side and lower the normal side on the opposite side for correction treatment. It includes a head fixing ring, a maxillofacial fixing belt and a chest and abdomen fixing plate. The key points are that a metal connecting rod is arranged between the head fixing ring and the chest and abdomen fixing plate, a bandage with a nylon buckle is arranged at the rear of the head fixing ring, an adjusting screw which can be adjusted on the metal connecting rod is arranged on the chest and abdomen fixing plate, and a shoulder strap is arranged at the rear of the chest and abdomen fixing plate. The utility model has the advantages of simple structure, reliable correction, and convenient use, and does not affect the food, clothing, housing and transportation of patients, and can be widely used in the correction and rehabilitation process of torticollis of patients. The chin support supports the child's lower jaw and is equipped with a U-shaped metal bracket with adjustable height. It is used to fix both sides of the child's head. The chin support is supported by a supporting plate fixed on the child's body through connecting parts. The orthosis is easy to use and simple to operate. The corrected position can be adjusted at will. For habitual torticollis that is not suitable for surgery, it can be worn for a long time without side effects. Indications: Suitable for correction of congenital torticollis after surgery and correction of habitual torticollis in children. Structure: It consists of a pair of front and rear chest pieces, an adjustable universal chin rest, an adjustable rear pillow rest and inner padding, connected and fixed with Velcro. The torticollis corrector helps to fix and correct the plasticity and change the unhealthy appearance. This method is gentle and non-irritating, has a high safety factor, and will not cause much harm to the patient. The torticollis corrector went through many trials and modifications before it was launched on the market. If combined with massage and other methods, the effect will be more obvious.According to experts, torticollis correctors are usually used under the guidance of professionals, mainly because this method can make the treatment effect more obvious, greatly improve the cure rate, and get rid of the disease more quickly. The above is an introduction to the torticollis corrector. When using it, patients must follow the guidance of professionals and read the instruction manual to ensure better use of the torticollis corrector and earlier recovery of health. |
