What Is The Name Of The Disease Which Tilts Head To The Left?
My 12 month grandson tilts his head to the left and looks up at you. The doctor sent him to a neurologist and told my daughter that he may have some type of disease that they grow out of by 2-3 years. They are also running tests to make sure he does not have a brain tumor. She could not remember the name of the disease. Would you know? thanks

Hi,
One of the condition in which this type of picture is there called Torticolis.
This might be due to some injury in neck muscles during birth.
Gradually this deformity will be alright with physiotherapy.
Consult Neo-natologist or pediatric neuro surgeon and get examined.
Ok and take care.
