10 Month Baby Having Stiff Neck And Lying On Left Side. Taking Tylenol. What Further Treatment Can Be Done?
10 month old woke up this morning with stiff neck. Cries everytime he tries to turn his head to the right. He has received cold/ heat packs and tylenol every 4 hours. He is sleeping now and he still, even in his sleep, is favoring his left side. If I move him, he cries and is awaken. I am just afraid that by him sleeping the same way, he won't heal. Is there anything else I should or can do?
