A. due to pressure on one side of the head during sleeping there is flatness / abnormal shape on that side of the head. no treatment is required for flat head / bumpy head and you will see that by one year to two years of age the flat head will go away as soon as the child beginxs to sit and later walk. pillows will not help much in this case so do not worry. the bones in the skull are elastic so to give space to the growing brain it takes different shape and when the growth ozf the brain occurs properly then gradually they will take a normal shape.

A. You have to make your child sleep in different portion otherwise the flat head is going to stay flat only always so far this is very very important for you that you keep changing the posture every now and then that is how things are going to be better for the childWrite Your Answer Here
