Posterior plagiocephaly/Early skull fusion

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. Freaked out father here, and I am looking for some

insight on what has become the biggest issue in my life right now.

My six month old son just went for his 6 month wellness.

After measuring his skull and double checking the chart, the doc

declares that his head hasn't grown since the last visit. After

feeling around a little bit he states that he thinks 's skull

plates may have fused early and that he may have Craniosynostosis.

Looking at some of the example I have found online it looks like

posterior plagiocephaly. went for his head xray today and we

should have the results tomorrow.

So, my question is this. Has anyone in the group had this issue with

their child? It looks to me like the only option is surgery. Is that

the case? What is the recovery time like? I am located in central Ohio

so if there are any locals with some doc suggestions, that would be

appreciated too. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
