What Causes An Infant To Drop His Head To One Side Repeatedly?
My grandson is almost 8 months & I noticed a couple of weeks ago, that all of a sudden, his head will drop to one side and he straightens back up himself but it seems to be happening more often. Is this anything to be concerned about? Email: YYYY@YYYY
Your grandson needs a good neurological examination to rule out seizures and movement disorders. The doctor may ask for EEG or brain scans, depending on the findings during examination.
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
