Torticollis or Wry Neck

Wry neck, also known as torticollis, is a condition in which the neck is tilted or twisted to one side, causing pain and discomfort. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including muscle strain, joint stiffness, nerve damage, or even poor posture.

Signs and Symptoms

Common complaints associated with Wry Neck include neck pain and stiffness, headaches, limited range of motion, and muscle spasms. In severe cases, Wry Neck can also cause pain and tingling in the arms and hands.
