Guest guest Posted March 12, 2002 Report Share Posted March 12, 2002 Hi Celeste, Well the first time I went they gave me neck exercises to do with Madison. They don't seem to be helping and around her mouth turns a light shade of blue like she is not getting enough oxygen. Is this common? she is not seeing a pt I am going to ask about that when I go to her appt today. It it real common to have a pt? To tell you the truth I am just very nervous. Welcome to the group and post congratulations on your twin daughters!! My son was dx with torticollis and also developed plagio. Can you tell me a little bit more about your situation: how often do you stretch her? What types of stretches are you doing? Is she seeing a professional pt? Have you checked into the support group, torticolliskids or www.torticolliskids.org? They are a great source of tips and info! Keep in mind that tort is not a quick fix, it takes a lot of time and hard work. Some children, very rarely, do not respond to physical therapy and surgery is considered as a last result around age 2. This is extremely rare though, so if you have not talked with a professional pt, please do so asap. It took a good 3 months for us to see results, so hang in there if its been less time. Let me know if I can help you with any questions, I would be happy to. I will attach a link to show you some of the exercises and holds that are very helpful. You can also email me at rella1234@.... Don't worry- between this group and the tort group, all your questions will be answered! ' Mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
