2 month old turns head to left only

2022-07-20 19:54:12
My 2 months old turns her head only to left.. Upon distraction, she turns to right for just a sec and turns back to left. While breastfeed she turns to right. She is diagnosed with ptosis in right eye...is that the reason?

An urgent evaluation by Paediatrician is needed. All of the problems as above can happen. Torticollis/ contacture also needs to be looked into  to rule out Sternomastoid tumor.
Next Steps
See a Paediatrician

Some children develop a propensity to turn to one side only. Due to this they lose hair on that side too.
