When should I be concerned for my spasmodic torticollis and how I would know if it requires surgery?
Torticollis can go away with proper medication. Surgery, however, is required if the medicine and therapies do not prove to be fruitful. About 10 percent of children require surgery and rest all get recovered through medicines. The operation is typically scheduled once the child reaches preschool years.
