Q.

hello doctors! #ask the expert my daughter is 4 month old and she is suffering from plagiocephaly. (Flat head from back side). I know it doesn't affect brain development. But i m concerned about this because of the deformity and the shape she is getting. her head is bulging from top. Thats not looking good. please advice what should i do. ? Is cranial orthosis helmet can be helpful?? I can use that without consultation?? Because i consulted 2-3 doctors here they are just saying its ok some children have flat heads. There is no treatment to correct this. I have seen the usage of cranial helmets outside india but not in india. so please guide me?

A. please do not worry about the flat head it is genetic inside brain will be normal irrespective of the shape outside if there is no relief it is better you see your doctor for proper examination particularly physical examination if there is need for doing investigations to find out the problem and treatment ok
